I'd build the trans if you are planning on throwing a lot of power at it in the future. You'll be another step ahead.

Bay Area SS, just wanted to say what's up. You know my boy Dave, with the Blue SS. I used to be his mustang buddy. But now I finally figured out that I was missing out and switched my game up.

if it drives fine dont spend money on something you don't really need fix the rest of the car...if you have 500hp but your car wont stay together what is the point? i would rather have 350 reliable hp than 500hp i have to fix all the time.

not a bad idea. 40k for a c6, 5k in your pocket trade in value of 12k maybe thats 17k off of the 40k you might be in to the new vette for around $400/month


Still no need to rebuild the t56 unless it has issues or your going to build it to the hilt. Wsste of money otherwise. You dont fix was isnt broken unless you've got money to spare. And you dont.

More like $500 but who's counting. Those LS3 C6's pull pretty well
