Default strong 4 or 5 speed

I am looking for the strongest 4 speed or 5 speed i can find. I'm talking that can handle 800+ horse. A good friend of mine has a big block 69 Camaro that was put out 756 horse at the flywheel. We can't find a manual tranny that can come anywhere near holding that. He really doesn't want to go automatic becuase 85% of driving is on the street and it is old school and he wants it to stay that way. All help is great. Give me anything you can find.

a built t-56 should be able to handle that 756 flywheel hp in a car with 15% loss is what 640ish wheel hp. Talk to t56rebuilds or anotehr sponser and see what they have to say.

Muncies.. arent really the hot ticket... Tex Racing has some pretty nice T-10 stuff but once again not really the hot ticket... look at Gforce's web site... they have 4 and 5 speed transmissions that can fit your application....

where would their tranny's that would fit a big block be listed? I may be blind or something.

When you order any hardcore racing componet such as a transmission you need to tell them what clutch spline you plan on using and they'll give you the right imput shaft small block or big block dosent matter its up to you to pick the right stuff as far as bellhousing and related componets. Im sure they can help you out
