I want to modify my transmission with Bill K's components. Just wondering how far I can push the torque ratings.

the limiting torque number is what the TC can handle when locking up , once its locked 900 plus isn't a big problem , DISCLAIMER it hasn't been for me anyways .

i'll Bet bill answer this , but the lockup lining has its limits no matter who's TC you have .
 
I would also like an estimate of the sustained torque the overdrive planetary gear set can handle. Or what is the maximum boost vs RPM you should have while towing. Is towing at 70 mph and 20 lb boost (200 hp)with 3. 54 gears going to wear out those tiny planetary gears in several thousand miles?

Isn't the next weakest link after doing the VB and TC the OD clutch pack... Bill?

I have been told somewhere around the 500hp mark... but call Bill to verify.

Bob as far as the 400hp mark... I honestly believe that Bills setup will definately handle more power then that... cause Bills truck is around the 400hp mark with the PE on max. . and his transmission has no problem holding that kinda power. LOL (guess it time to add more power... LMAO)
