Thanks for assuming I read dirtbag magazine articles, but my dad owns a high performance tranny shop and therefore I have a little tranny knowledge myself. I GUARANTEE you I can get you a 400 converter that'll handle 1200hp for less than $1000.... and a spragless unit that candle handle quite a bit more for probably around $1000.

Pro-mod drum? are you serious? You thought with 800hp you needed a pro-mod drum?
And this roller bearing conversion...are you talking about replacing all the thrust-washers with torringtons? That's a whole $50 "mod"......

I don't know who's doing your trannies, but I stand by my previous statement and can/will build one with a converter that will easily handle your 800hp for UNDER $2000...and it will be tested (on a dyno) AND guaranteed.
