Since you have the amount of power that you have at the wheels i would recommend very highly the ZR1 ratio tranny... Second choice would be the Z06 ratio tranny...

So I got the 5.0 FMS T-56 and it already has a 31 spline out that comes in it, so does this mean it came upgraded already??? From my understanding, these where basicly 03-04 cobra t56s....mine has a 2.66 cluster tho, and i upgraded the stock 10 input to the 26. Having a rating of 440ftq seems a little low imo...

Mike,

I have an 02 camaro I mostly road race with and a little street driving. It has a 650hp 416, stock 10bolt that I recently changed the 3.73 gears to 3.55 to avoid making that shift into fifth on the track, but it lacks some grunt out of the corners and I'm having a few shifting issues. I run a nitto nt-01 that's not quite 26" tall. I've been using an LS7 clutch and am thinking of changing that at the same time to possibly a McLeod RXT with a lighter weight flywheel. What would be your suggestion here? (beginning to think ill have to rob a bank to afford all this).

What gear sets would you recommend for this conversion in my case and would I save some $ by having you just use my trans? I also have a custom carbon fiber driveshaft I want to be able to reuse. What would be my total cost? Thx.

Mike,

Thanks for taking the time to discuss my trans needs today. Can you price out what we talked about today in regards to rebuilding my 02 T56 as well as the manic E2 clutch with a lightened flywheel and hardened bolts and shipping to AZ 85226. My email is danbsherwood@yahoo..com. Thx!

Mike,

Can you shoot me pricing for T56 rebuild out of 02 camaro level 6 as well as the speed bleeder, Mantic ER2 clutch and hardened bolt kit. Remember I need to use my existing carbon fiber ds. Do you have a shipper with better rates?

Thanks. danbsherwood@yahoo.com. 928-205-8835

torq tests and "ratings" are almost always tested with the part in question under the most load. the higher the gear the more load, so i can see the tests being done in 6th gear as that gear puts the most load on that given part being tested.

Just buy a brand new TR6060 from GM for 3300.00 and sell your T-56 for maybe 1000.00. Total savings = 1700.00. Dont be ignorant
