Hey everyone,
It is about time for me to start shopping for a transmission for my '69 Camaro. I want an overdrive transmission, so I started looking at TH700s. I then decided on a 4L60E because it seems that transmission builders can build them to withstand horsepower cheaper than the TH700s (Correct me if I am wrong). I'm looking to put about 550RWHP on the car, so it needs to be strong.
I heard the hype about the new 6 speed, but who knows when that will be out. But what about the Caddy 5L40E? Could that be a possibility?
6 gears > 5 gears > 4 gears.
If someone could enlighten me about this transmission, swap capibility, etc. I would appreciate it.
Thanks,
Max
