T56 blew up
 
alright guys like the title says my tranny decided to throw my clutch threw my floor board and and into my dash :mad: now the tranny its self is still good so i was wondering who do you guys recommend to rebuild it to hold around 700RWHP??

so far its between tick and rpm

Full insides with a Viper output shaft should do it.

Wow were you racing when it happened? What clutch were you running?

First things first, get an SFI bellhousing!!!!!!!!! That would have kept the clutch out of your dash and keeps your feet safe! Your transmission isn't the culprit. It just sounds like your clutch just came apart. What clutch was in there? As for a clutch to hold 700hp you may wanna start looking at a twin disc setup.

yea i was racing at the time it blew is second gear i was running a centerforce clutch im going be running the monster clutch now i only said 700 because of the motor im building on the side right now shes only putting dwn 406rwhp and 376tq.. theres a guy on here he owns txmotorsports and he said he can build be a tranny to hold that power have any of you heard of them

First off, I super glad you didnt get hurt!!! Maybe you should invest in a quicktime bellhousing so you can keep you legs/feet.

Sounds like the input shaft might have broke. We make a Viperized level 3 build that is good for 750rwtq!!! Check it out on the link

Maybe you should just quit dicking around and install some driver mod in the form of a 4L80e.

batman_ls1 05-17-2012 10:59 AM

smokeshow 05-17-2012 11:01 AM

smokeshow 05-17-2012 11:13 AM

batman_ls1 05-17-2012 11:15 AM

Sales@Tick 05-17-2012 12:15 PM
