Quote: How much power does it need to handle? The 700R4 and 4L60E have the steep first gear. Good for trucks, etc.
Look into a well built 200R4. Overdrive without the huge first gear.
The GV makes sense if you already have everything setup and just want a bolt on deal.
It needs to handle 550-600Hp in the future. If I already had the 727 I would definitely go the GV route, but I need and entire trans setup. Total cost is slightly in favor of the keisler setup.
