Default Will it hold.

Well guys im planning on doing an lsx swap on my car and converting my freshly rebuilt t56 with the ls bellhousing,front plate,input shaft...etc.

Now the motor is gonna most likely be a big cam only 6.0 with some possible juice thrown at it.

Now im planning on getting a monster stage 3 clutch and running a 2 step at the track.

And my tranny now mabye has 3000 miles on it if that since rebuild i just bought the stock rebuild kit from the gearbox.

Any of you ever ran this set up on a basically stock t56 and not broken it lol

I mean i know lots of guys who are still running stock trannys but idk how long itd last or not with the 2 step launching pretty high..

rear will be an 8.8 btw so im not worried about breaking it.

Too many factors to consider before anyone could give you an answer to whether a transmission will fail or not.
