Hi Mark,
 
I have a 700r-4 in my 76 Vette.  It was built by Premiere Performance about 6 or 7 years ago.  I like it a lot and haven't had any problems with since I installed it.  The engine that used to be in the Vette was about 325hp or so and it ran 13.8/9 @ 99-100mph w/ 3.70 gears.  Not super powerful or abusive to the trans but a decent combo overall.  The engine that's in the Vette these days is even less hp but it still goes good.
 
I personally would never go back to the TH350 that was in it.  Especially when I hit the highway w/ overdrive!

cYa-

Try this. It works in mine.
 
 
I am still researching a little more whether the 700 is a good idea.  I will bring my 400 back from storage this weekend just in case.
 
Does anybody else use a 700R4 behind a performance engine?  Any other experiences with the Raptor 700r4, good or bad?
 
Mark
