Hi, I'm looking at putting a 200R4 in my 1970 GS 455 convertible. Car has around 500 HP and runs in the upper 11's.
I was wondering who makes a 200R4 that will stand up to my car and it's engine. I have a line on a BRF core to build on.
Has anyone used one of these Raptor/Reptoid tranny's? I have gotten a recommendation for Jannis Transmissions in Ohio. I'd like to have someone in Ohio do the work, but am willing to have something built and shipped.
I just don't want to have to be yanking the tranny every year to have it "freshened up". Car is mostly street driven and only goes to the track maybe twice a year for some fun. Car is heavy and weighs just over 4000 lbs, plus me. Currently have a pro-built TH400 with custom 9.5", 3200 stall converter.
Any advice is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
