FTI Performance 700R4 Level 3 Transmission Packages FTK7R4-3E3

Stepping above the Level 2 package in FTI's 700R4 line, part number FTK7R4-3E3 is remanufactured and rated to 600 horsepower, again built around an Edelbrock carburetor setup rather than general street use.

Where the stall speed sits

FTI fits this package with a converter rated to a 3,200 rpm stall, taller than the stall speed on its Level 2 counterpart, matched to the extra power this build is designed to handle. Twelve quarts of fluid and a dipstick come filled and ready, and the carbureted-intake hardware this Edelbrock setup calls for (a TV cable, a filler tube, and a correction piece) ships already fitted.

Case and shaft details

Expect an aluminum, OEM-style case with a hardened-steel input shaft turning on thirty splines, a 7.500-inch tailshaft, and a slip-on yoke, with first gear geared at 3.06 and lockup supported. A flexplate, controller, wiring harness, and cooler are not part of the box and still need sourcing separately.

Q: What justifies stepping up to Level 3? A taller converter stall speed and a higher horsepower ceiling suit an engine making more power than FTI's lighter-duty 700R4 package is built around.

Q: Does this suit a fuel-injected engine? No, the included throttle-valve hardware ties this build to a carbureted Edelbrock setup specifically.

Q: What bellhousing pattern and gear count does it use? It bolts to a Chevy bellhousing pattern and runs four forward gears through an automatic valve body.
