im still confused why you went with that tranny... you said the car should make 670hp without the spray... spray it and thats 670+150 which is 820...you said the tranny is only good for 750...

They claim it good for at least 750 HP . I've talked to at least 5 people running this same transmission with over 800 HP . And not one person has had a problem . And as I only drive my car maybe 500-750 miles per year, and no 1/4 mile rip's . I'm thinking I'm pretty safe .

So whats your purpose for this car??? I mean most people running that much power will probably be hitting the drag strip or open track. I mean i hope my car has somewhere in the neighborhood of that power number when its all said and done but my purpose is going to be a street/strip car. But whats your purpose of having a car with that much power???

Yea, but I don't think that you're going to see full potential out of that setup at the strip, that's why I asked about the trans. I want to build my car up to that same power range, but with much more than a stock geared rear end, you're going to need 5th, that's why I was looking into a T56 for mine. The ratio is good for 5th if you need it and you still 6th so you can cruise highway if need be.
