    yeah, 4 cylinder transmissions are the best...


    Look for V8 transmissions. They are a little stronger and you won't need a special pilot bearing.

          Even a V8 one is going to be marginal at that sort of power levels in a heavy car. Can't beat on it or you'll blow it apart. If you really want something tough, a Tremec will hold up very nicely.
