I hope you get out to the mile and put down some good times. I'm a big fan and take a ton of HD pics and video during the March and October runs.

Sweet ******* Jesus. Has 1500rwhp ever been done on an LSX street car? Good luck finding a transmission and rear end that will be able to keep that power! I saw you were looking for a Z06 drivetrain? Will the rear hold 1500rwhp?

I sold my 4L80 conversion, but kept the rearend, as its built as strong as it cam be built by RPM. It has all the trick parts, quaiffe diff., etc,so I think the rear ened is ok. There are some 1300-1500hp viper guys making the TR6060 live. I dont expect any trans to last but hopefully find the one to live the longest. Im going to try the 6060 first and if it breaks I will try T56 with gforce internals.

That sounds reasonable. I wasn't sure te 6060 would be able to hold that much power. PM sent.

Dont forget a fluid pump on the t56 to force fluid back up to the front...itll live a little bit longer instead of scorching bearings on hard launches.

The dyno video is pretty funny.

They're just sitting on the back of the car, and they look so bored.
Like there's not 3,000lbs with 1000+rwhp trying to fly off the rollers.

Im installing a 6060 first. It has the fluid pump on it. If the trans wont hold I will send it to Gforce and have them convert it to T56 internals, since they are the only ones that build badass gearsets. Im sure that I will break transmissions, its to be expected with the power Im going after. I just want to find the one that breaks the least.

As much as I hate to say it, at that speeds and power your going to need some down force to help put it to the ground. May need something like this.

If downforce ever becomes a problem, we will work on it with front and rear splitters/difusers. I am a big no-no when it comes to wings.

When I go above 130 downforce becomes a problem so does my best friends firehawk. Oranges to apples I know. I can only imagine your car. I'm not too big of a fan of wings, that picture didn't look bad. You can also have it for temporary means. Up to you. Honestly what's the point of all the power when you can't get it to the ground. Not trying to stop you or anything because I'm 100% on your side with the power levels. I want to see more American cars at the top.
