Default What would my T-56 go for?

I am gonna be converting to a 4L-80. I am loking for a "ballpark" figuire for what I can get out of my 6-speed setup......

It has 23K miles on it and shifts perfect
Spec 3+ clutch with less than 1K miles
Tick adj. master cylinder


what do you think I could get out of this setup?

I would imagine somewhere around 1500-1800 just guessing??? A junkyard asked me around 1200 for a T56 with like 60k and he wouldn't give me a warranty all he could say was they were driving it when it got crashed.

I would also say $1800-$2000. Especially with the low miles, clutch and MC.

considering you can buy a rebuilt one with ZERO miles and all the upgrades like carbon blockers (yours are paper lined), steel 3/4 shift fork (yours is alum), billet keys (yours are stamped steel), bronze fork pads (yours are plastic), updated synchros, and new bearings..... for $2100

Around $1500 is probably more realistic
