TII Transmission: How Much Power

How much power is the TII transmission good for? We're talking drag style launches here.

Some say 400, some say closer to 500. I think you should search/post in the Rotary Drag Racing section.

The general rule of thumb is 500. Now I've never personally been to that limit, but a couple porta rican guys I know drag race and they've had theirs at the 600-650 mark for a couple seasons with numerous passes before it bit the dust. I think the 500 mark is a max "it'll live here without breaking" point. But like I said I'm only speaking off second hand knowledge so...
