FMX tranny good/bad?

Hey everyone,
I apparently have the FMX transmission instead of the c4 in the 79 ranchero. Does anyone know anything about the FMX tranny? I've heard more bad than good, but i read somewhere they can handle a lot of horsepower. As far as gearing, is it the same as the c4 and c6? For performance purposes, what's the main difference other than weight? And could the transgo shift kit help it? I want it to perform well on the street, but be able to do well at the strip. Its about a 320 horse motor with 3.70 gears in the auburn pro 9 inch limited slip. Ive also taken out a lot of weight on this sucker.
Thanks!
Danny
