I believe the 5R55E is rated around 550 lb-ft range, the 4R55E is rated for 440 lb-ft.

HP I don't know, I'm sure it's more than a 4.0 could put out though. Lol

a 5R55E can handle 400hp prett well. overheating is a concern, as is blow-by causing flare shifts. there are updated EPC and seperator plates for these now. The EPC controls line pressure, so they get a good workout trying to keep the trans locked under high HP.

if you can find one, get a C4 and culhane bellhousing. I beat on my 5r55e for 4 years, and it tooke it like a champ. only problem i ever has was the flare shift that i fixed on a weekend.

how much power were putting putting through it?? And how much torque? I think mines going out because it really doesnt like shifting from 2nd to 3rd, or reverse. Like the other guy said its basically and electronic C4. Im guessing a shift kit wouldn't hurt would it?
