200-R4 transmission behind mopar stroker

I have seen the Art Carr 700R4 transmissions for V8's. It worked well behind a chevy 383 stroker with around 500 horsepower. Best I remember the 200R4 is for V6 cars and is very weak. I dont think it would be a good choice behind that stroker. If you want the OD GM unit go for the 700R4. It is a lot beefier than the 200R4.

I second the opinion- I have a friend who is a tranny guru and he won't touch them for any type of performance powertrain. It is the equivalent of building one of GM's "Target 350" motors...not worth the money or effort and will still puke itself when the wick is turned up:wack:
