Massive torque w/ 700R4

[SPEEDZONE]

Just build yourself a stout TH400 and put a Gear Vendors unit behind it. You can put all the power you want to it and it will never break. Plus you have the added benefit of splittling the gears which basically gives you six speeds. If you are concerned about weight, the Gv doesant wiegh much however, put it begind a TH350. You cant go wrong.

Nick is correct that everything Ive stated is all relative... My version of "beating" on a trans may be somone elses version of tame. Then again I show it no mercy and pound the trans with everything the motor will put out when racing which means I can speak with the BTDT experience.

With that being said IMO it boils down to each individuals situation. If youve got the money then by all means step up to an 80E or a 400 with the GV unit and all but forget about the trans. For budget reasons, space constraints or youve got your heart dead set on using a 700 they can live for a while under high torque/abuse (theres that "while" and "relative" thing again) but do not be suprised when it scatters all over the track at some point. As long as youre aware of that then pick whichever trans combo fits your situation.
