Auto transmission options for a 4.6 4V

[sutyak]

Let me start by saying I know nearly nothing about automatics. I've always been a gear rower. Now that I have a higher horsepower car I'm considering going straight to an automatic and possibly save myself from breaking a couple manuals along the way.
ANY info on autos for these cars are welcome. I'm looking for something to hold up to 800 ft-lb torque, and I can abuse repeatedly at the track, but also have good street manners and has overdrive for the interstate. Does this transmission exist, or should I scrap the auto idea and go with a built T-56?

turbo 4v drag car = auto


seems like 4r70W holds up pretty well....and i think still has electronic lockup?


google FTW

you can get by with a c4 and some 3.27 gears it will roll on the highway fine and still work good at the track .let me know what you want to do with the 3650 i might need one thanks

Gear Vendors overdrive. Pricey but gives you the best of both worlds.

I believe ruthless has a th400 in his car.

c4 and th400 are non OD transmissions, which was requested in the first post.

I'll accept all ideas and weigh the pros and cons in the end. Thanks everyone.
