I would have thought a rebiild kit would cost alot more?? I am only inquiring about this is because I am in Australia and shipping their whole LVL10 built tranny costs over 3K USD for just shipping.

So I thought I could order just the rebuild parts and get a Trans specialist here to do the job.
If you spoke with "Pat" @level 10,,, i would say that you are correct with that imfo.
I'm sure that kit is probably just clutches,gaskets,seals & o-rings....But "Pat" is the HMFIC & is straight forward.
Also,,,A Fully Built A7 Trans. From him can withstand 700ft.lbs. of TQ....w/no problems.

JC you are totally correct. I did speak to Pat and he said the rebuild kit for $790 USD includes:

Clutches

Steels

Gaskets

Seals

Are these items above, all that is required to strengthen my AT box to handle 450-500whp?

Also, Z1 sells and exedy clutch pack for the 7AT:

What would that do?

I'm no expert by any means but have rebuilt some hemi transmissions to handle more power.

Beyond the clutch plates you have to replace the valve body(where the real trany brains are) and probably some solenoids. Then a new torque convertor with a proper flywheel. Then there is the "other stuff" that Level 10 only knows and the guarantee that Level 10 provides. Their may be additional parts required that Level 10 doesn't sell to the public too.

Plus if you can find someone local who knows what their doing to rebuild it for you. I only know of Level 10 and they seem to do great work and have excellent results.

To the mates in Australia, it will save you lots of money to find someone local to work with Level 10 to rebuild it for you. I hear shipping costs are expensive.
