Can a C4 Transmission with a good rebuild, good quality race clutches, and a hardened input shaft handle close to 500 horsepower? Please let me know thanks.

i wasn't spouting nonsence, Jay at Broader who deals with them on a day to day basis might be able to give some advice, that is all and i never said anything about any of you not knowing anything about transmissions. But whatever...

I was going to answer, but I realized that since my motor made closer to 600 hp than 500, I wasn't qualified to give an accurate answer.
