what to do going boost Hey guys i've now come down to the point in my build where i need to figure out what im going to do with my drive-line. im on the stock t-56 and i know it will need to be replaced. i guess what scares me is that my goals for the car is 800rwhp/750rwtq i cant really find a t-56 that will support that for under 3k.
the car goes to the drag strip once a month with a few interstates pulls every weekend but im just not sure if a m6 will hold up. i was going to run the pump to help lubricate the gears under hard acceleration.
what are most of you guys doing with over 800rwhp/800rwtq...
also the clutch is a twin/mcleoud

Get a TR6060 from a C6 Corvette and have it converted to fit in an Fbody and built by RPM Trans. It also has that pump on the front stock for better high rpm shifting/lubing. Twin disk McCleod RXT. This is my plans if I stay manual.
For what its going to cost, I would look at the 4L80 option. It will be faster and easier to get down the track with. 6 speeds are great but after a while there comes a point where the automatic just makes more sense.

i hear ya i just dont want to be bored while im driving... ill probably end up swapping over to a th400 possibly a 4l80e.
An auto will be quicker and more consistant but a stick is always more fun. At that power level one of our Bolt-in T56 Magnums would be the only way to go if you wanted to keep a 6 speed in the car. Let me know if you have any questions about it.
