Anyone using a TH400 with a GV overdrive in a TR?

[TRBON8R]

Just wondering if anyone has ever tried a TH400 trans with a Gear Vendor overdrive kit in a turbo Buick? If so, what would a setup like this cost complete for a built 400, converter, and the GV unit? Thanks.

I hope the rebuilt GV Over Drives are A LOT cheaper than the new ones. Friend with a motorhome and a th400 got the GV overdrive and it was more expensive with the th400 rebuild and the GV overdrive than the 4L80E. I told him to go the 80 route, but the GV works great. A little loud when it engages, and from what I hear they are damn near impossible to break. Friends motorhome never had a prob with it.
