Just depends on what is wrong with it. Rebuilds start at $890 and go from there just depending on how bad it really is.

Thanks,

Is $890 just replacing stock parts? I want to get it so i can be pushing like 800hp and not worry about the tranny clutch any of that what will that cost me? the only thing wrong with it is when i put it in third it pops out sometimes.

No we only use Carbon Blocker Rings, Billet Keys, Bronze Fork Pads, Steel 3/4 Fork, New 1/2 Stock Slider and New 3/4 Stock Slider in our $890 package as we do not do any stock rebuilds. No one that we are aware of makes upgraded sliders unless you go with a g-force transmission and I am pretty sure the slider assemblies are stock.

To hold 800rwhp you will have to go with a g-force unit as I do not know of anyone that will warranty a stock gear set over 700rwhp.

If it is popping out of 3rd you might have to have a new gear just depends on what the synchro teeth look like on the gear itself.

Thanks,
Amber

i was just using 800hp as a number im probly going to only be making 600-650 so holding 700hp is perfectly fine so what can you do for me with $1,000 to work with what kind of clutch and rebuild are we looking at?

I can not guarantee a price as I am not sure what is wrong with yours. I can only ball park $890 and assuming nothing is wrong with what you have. Anything above what my $890 package includes would be extra.

The rebuild would not come with a clutch. Spec has a nice stage 3 for the LT1.

Check out my website for more information on my builds.

Joe does really good work. I emailed him with a question about a clutch package the other day though. Still no response. I may have to call.

What is a ballpark price for a G-Force equipped LS1 T56, no core. ( I'm in the UK, so wouldnt be practical )

Just enquring for future reference, as sooner or later mine is going to break.

Damn, thats not a bad price for all that goes into the tranny. Do you use all billet keys(alteast all forward gears) or just the 3/4 assy?.
