4L80E. Can be built plenty strong for that big block, has electronic control to get all the shifting characteristics and speeds exactly how you want them, and allows the cool paddle shifter from Twist Machine is you choose to. :thumbsup:

A 4L80e will live very well, a 4l60e would live as long as your not giving it drag strip launches. My old pro street car, I put a 4L80E in it with a billet lock up convertor and made acouple 9's passes with it. That was behind a 706.

Late model 2wd trucks are your best bet.
