Birdman 88,
Talk to LS1 Joe. He rebuilds the t56 trannys. His web sight is www.t56rebuilds.com.
He knows the tranny inside and out. As far as sluggish, I assume you are talking about dragging or slow going in to gear. Slow going in to gear and grinding, usually means there is a problem with the clutch hydraulics and needs bleeding, or the master or slave cylinder needs to be replaced. However, you say there is also a vibration in the shifter in 6th gear. That could mean there is a internal tranny problem.
If your talking about grinding and slow when shifting between gears, you have an internal problem. More than likely it is the blockers and/or syncronizers. Don't let the problem go for long or you will have to replace more parts.
Again, talk to Joe.
Good luck
