Re: 700r4 or TH400 with gear splitter?

I think we scared the OP away.

NV4500 is a good choice if you like rowing through gears (actually have one sitting on the garage floor to replace the TH400 behind the 454 in my R30). If I ever get around to the diesel swap in it, I'll ad a GV behind the NV4500.

Honestly though, if the OP wants an automatic he should be looking at a 4L80E. Not only is there way more strength than a 700R4 (not knocking the 700...I have one living behind a diesel that is making 500+ ft/lbs of torque and it is fine), but the ability to tune lockup and shift points with the controller can really make for a nice driving experience.
