No Limit or PorterBuilt or What?

400hp to the wheels will be a decent task to achieve through a 4l60/4l80e trans. Easier to accomplish through the 60e but may be at its limits. To help compare the modern transmissions think of the 4l60 as a th350 and a 4l80 as a th400 but with an extra gear. The 6Ls are 6-speeds.
My current planned combo is a an lq4 (lower compression 6.0) w/243 heads (same head as factory but smaller combustion chamber to bring compression up), decent size cam, bigger injectors, necessary odds n ends, and a t56. That should get me over 400hp to the wheels. If I run my 4l80e instead, I'll probably looking at 360-380 and a 3400-3600 stall.
Any more power and I'm looking at a lot more money or going turbo.

"ridetech coil-overs less invasive than NL and PB" do you mean there will be a lot of cutting and welding on the NL and PB?
RideTech may be for me...I was told the 4L60 is similar to 700r??whats the difference in 4L60 and 4L60E
