movin on Posted August 11, 2015 Report Share Posted August 11, 2015 Since I was the owner of that car before Allen, I would say that you have a good base to work with. It will have faster shifts and less heat with the vb mod. I would suggest putting a larger transmission cooler on there before doing much modding for horsepower. Also, don't boost in overdrive, because that is the weakest gear and will burn out. As for horsepower, I know there isn't a magical number, but I would imagine you could do mid to maybe upper 200's without an issue with the above advice considered.

MikeMeyerhoff Posted August 11, 2015 Report Share Posted August 11, 2015 (edited) The aussies had the l4n71 figured out well enough that 500 wasn't a problem. Unfortunately that know-how is hard to come by. All of the packs can have extra plates/frictions added. Like other autos, the fluid pressure can be turned up with some tweaking (but I don't think anybody in the US has real data on this). The last piece is oversizing the apply pistons for the bands, which again I don't know of anybody doing but find it hard to believe the aussies weren't. In some ways the convertor is more of a limit because we can't call up Summit and get whatever stall and ratio we need. There is a shop here in town that can modify convertors, but I haven't talked with them yet. I'd love to hear from anyone who knows more about our convertors internals and mods!
