Default T56 noise

i got my 6.0 in with the turbo and stuff. the t56 is making a loud whine like a violin that seems to be louder in lower rpms, it is built by six speeds inc and have a warranty in houston but i guess theyre out of business now and im looking for someone to fix the problem.

Could be a bearing, I remeber mine made a like almost a high pitched howl, similar to rearend gears when there not set up right. I ended up breaking the output shaft so i had to get it replaced and 4th gears bearings were gone. I would get it checked out sooner than later.

So speed doesn't have much to do with it, just RPM? As much as I hate to say it I'd get the tranny out of there and have somebody look at it as soon as you can.

The former builder of Six Speeds is working at LMR; his name is Scott. Give him a call and I'm sure he'll be happy to look at it for you.
