Question Looking for T-56 upgrade PARTS

My buddy with a 02 z28 with a t-56 6 speed tranny. The car has less than 9,000 miles. It has most of the bolt ons and stock clutch. His clutch is soft and will be replacing it. Sometimes when he goes into 4th, he then cannot get out of 4th. We beleive its due to a bent clutch fork. This is ok because we want to upgrade the internals in the t-56 since we will be removing it for the clutch. He is a Chevy tech and has access to people who can do the rebuild with him. So thats not the issue.

I am helping him look for upgrade part kits for his tranny. Such as a Viper level rebuild. OR better. Does anyone have websites where we can look and find kits. Prices and able to purchase on there.

Any help is appreciated.

Also is there a list of parts that should be upgraded when doing this sort of project.

check out d and d performance. It's not on their website, but I'd recommend some billet slider keys. Mainly the 3-4. Everything else I can think of is on d&d's website. http://ddperformance.com/t56_partsupgrades.htm

thanks man, I saw DD perf. come up a few times, but since I dont know everything about a 6 speed. I was not sure on the types of parts to upgrade. So yea, a good list like that will make purchasing easier.
