[QUOTE="HLN A55, post: 9656, member: 46"] I couldn't even guess Riley but its hard to say if they cheaped out or not. Ironically, if you upgrade the blockers, shift forks and some other very small items, they become almost indestructable. A guy I know from the shop that did mine is running the same trans and with over 500 RWHP, he's made over 500 full runs at the track with drag slicks and never had an issue since. I'm sure that you'd need the stouter RPM tranny if you had much more power but even most of those other tranny (from my research) have the same basic upgrades. It isn't until you start wanted treated gears etc for ultra high out put engines that the upgrades are whole lot more substantial. I actually think that GM did go potentially to steel shift forks later on but I couldn't verify. Also, a lot of C5 guys want the z06 gear ratios which is another reason for the popularity of getting an upgraded trans. Have I rambled yet?? Lol [size=1][i][mob][/mob][/i][/size] [/QUOTE]
