You know me so well Robert!
I'm REALLY babying this transmission. This isn't even a TGP 4t60HD, this is just a plain jane 4t60. I'm sure I'd be able to destroy a 28* 5spd. If I blow this trans... likely a F40 swap!

i don't know.... Kuntzie made ~700WHP before killing his 284, you could probably live with it....
6 nicely spaced gears are just fun though.
and if you do go F40, make documentation, LOTS of it, since i've been interested in the things ever since i saw the LS7 fiero hasn't killed one yet. and all of the W-body guys who HAVE swapped them(at least 1 1st gen and 1 2nd) in haven't made any pics to show what they did for mounts/etc, that'* about the only thing slowing me down.

I'm sure gpchris will help me out with it. He said it was a really easy swap. Prolly why he didn't bother doing a write up!
