high hp trany
high hp trany a few things ive been wondering and couldnt find. how much hp/tq do the stock z28 and ss tranies hold. also what do most people do for high hp manual tranies. stock trany with a built gearset. anyone using a muncie 4 spd, ive heard real good things about how much hp u can put through those
A t56 is much stronger than a Muncie . Also , the Z28 / T-A / SS all had the same exact unit in them . Tremec rates them about 450 lbs torque but they will hold closer to 650 at the weight most F body cars are .
ya im talking about weight of the car here i know weight of the trany doesnt have anything to do with it. im planing on using a stock t56 in a datsun 240 with around 600-700whp im guessing i should be fine then.
its a crap shoot really.
it may hold up well, it may not.
really depends on how hard you beat on it.
600hp and 5000rpm clutch dumps will probably break something.
600hp and a road race setup will proably last a while

The real killer of the shifting components breaking is the clutch setup. If the clutch isn't releasing properly you'll soon have broken parts inside the tranny.
