I've asked this to madvan before and he told me the idi trannies weren't built as strong and would not hold up to the power of the stroke.

I have had an idi tranny in my 96 for about 60k and I have not been nice to it I have had no problems. You will need to change torque converters though

its not a huge power differnce between an idi, 185 and 360lbs vs 215 425lbs, it will hold it but not for ever, i mean look at how long some of us have stage 2s on a stock tranny, upgraded TC and it will hold power for some time. if your in a bind and dont mind doing a tranny again in a few years then do it! i personally dont mind doing tranny swaps
