Default Turboing a 4.7

Can the stock tranny handle a gm4 turbo if it's spooling at max 10 psi?

I don't see why not, these are the same trannys in the hemi, and I dead launch with mine with a 125 shot of nitrous

Okay the reason I ask is this is my 7th tranny I'm on. No before any one asks I haven't done anything stupid with it... my ecm was bad as well as a couple gears and a few valve bodys

I've been driving for 25 years and have only had 1 trans go on me. It was a manual that I cracked while doing a burnout. Maybe you could tell us what not to do to keep these things going.
