So, what going in to replace the 7at once you kill it?

Hopefully the IPT build will hold at 800whp, as if not...will be using an adapter & installing a built 4L80e

Nooo, this VQ will be good for up to 40# boost
I’ll be able to dial it on up with sturdier trans.
Just unsure how far & what would break first
