Default Looking for a new worked T56 for Nitrous Vette

i was looking at new and rebuilt T56 trans for my LS2 Vette
Im about 415whp with bolt ons and I have a 150 shot.
I was looking at RPM and some others. I am pretty new to this site still finding my way around. can anyone recomend a good place to get a built
T56??
The one I have in the vette now is fine, it was rebuilt in Nov at the dealer
I bought Billet keys, and billet blocking rings, But Id rather upgrade with the spray, knowing myself the 150 will turn into 350 LOL! So for me better safe than sorry. Its for sale if anyone might be interested.
Thanks in advance Mike

I don't think you have very many options beyond what you've already done. I believe your Z51 (MZ6) still has the 27spline output shaft, so options would be to get the hardened shaft upgrade, or upgrade both the trans/rear to the Z06 (MM6) version with the larger 32spline output.

You mention RPM, I think they also offer a TR6060 variant for the pre-2008 C6s.

I usually upgrade the mainshaft with a G force piece for high powered applications. I have not seen one fail yet and some of them have seen some pretty heavy abuse.

Thanks for your reply. I would feel better if it was completely built.
Any Vendors in here???

That's what we've been trying to tell you.. The only upgrade option beyond what you've said was already done to your T56, is the hardened mainshaft.
