i would like to stick a 4L80E into my race car hauler. Its a 78 chevy 3/4 ton with a 96 350 vortec engine and a turbo 400 trans. The truck started as a crew cab frame which i lengthened over 3 feet and put a regular cab onto. I built a 16' deck on the back as well as a 4.10 geared dually rearend and airbags so it will haul alot of weight. I've had at least 8000 pounds on it. My race track is 2 hours away and that overdrive would be nice. Only thing is i don't want to spend a bunch on a computer controller. I seen in the new car craft they used a rossler control box but i don't want full line pressure all the time either. I found a transgo shift kit mentioned in the article. Has anyone used it? Is it suitable for towing?

The picture is of my deck truck with the white ford on the deck.
