Thanks Jason and TDP!
Just wanted to give a shout out to Jason for all his help and building my set up. Went with the 32 spline output shaft, triple cone syncro's, corvette internals, and all the other normal upgrades. I've only putted around in it for about 15 miles or so, but hope to be able to rip threw the gears here sometime this weekend.

Just got back from a little cruise to put some miles on the trans. As of now I only have about 70 miles on it, but I've got to ask those with first hand accounts of rebuilt t56's. Will is shift smoother after some miles are put on it? As of now I am not that pleased. NOT with TDP, they where great. Just with the way the trans itself feels. Maybe I was expecting too much, but it's still notchy shifting. This is the only T56 I've ever owned, and maybe this is good as it gets IDK.

Weakest link of the entire unit will be the 3rd gear outer steel ring. Those bastards like to crack under hard shifting. I'd say 50% of the Vette units I work on come in with cracked rings. Other than that, if its a 2.66 ratio gear box, it should kick ***.

Didn't want to leave this hanging. The trans is starting to smooth out. It's still not buttery smooth, but I only have about 150 miles on it at the moment.
