BTW the old 5R100 was a great tranmission and will take more power than an Allison. My friend has a modded Duramax and had to build the tranny to take the power from his larger turbo running 44lbs of boost. He is at around 550rwhp/900rwtq In a stock truck it is a great tranny with little or no issues but they do not hold power any better than comparative transmissions.
