What should I do to my 200-4R? Which kit?

[MiketheSpike]

Despite not being able to ID my 200-4R (so far) I know I'll have to put some dollars into beefing it up. My engine build will likely be around 400 HP and 425-450 TQ. I like everything I've read about Chris at CK Performance. I'm looking for suggestions as to what to do to this tranny to beef it up. For instance, should I go with:

CUSTOM STREET/STRIP VALVE BODY, GOVERNOR AND SERVO PACKAGE #24RVB/SSK
or
MASTER REBUILD KIT #24RRK/C (plus a billet servo)
or
With something else entirely?

I know that a billet servo and a lock-up kit are givens . . .

Other info: 72 Chevelle, 3.73 posi rear end

Not sure what those kits include but if you plan to dual feed you will need a billet forward drum

Hardened sun shell
Hardened stator support
Solid Teflon rings for input
Bearings to replace existing and some that are bushings
Hard rings for the pump

Are you planning on doing it yourself?

Give Chris a call, and ask for his suggestions, you might find it cheaper to swap w/one of his already built units, saving you the time and frustration. You can use your trans, for the core charge.
