6speed question
Hello people. I'm building turbo charged 6.0 for my 72 nova and was looking to hear some feedback about 6 speeds... I am on a little bit of a budget and want to weigh my options about puting in a strong enough trany for about 750 hp... Can stock trans be built to be beefier than it already comes so I don't have to spend 3G plus... Thanks

yes the stock T56 can be upgraded at home..if you know what your doing.
I would contact some T56 specials (sponsors here) and see what they charge for a rebuild/upgrade.
Or you can just throw it in and see what happens.
If your really making 750HP and want to have fun with it, your doing a trans upgrade now or later....

the T56 "Magnum" aka TR6060 is rated at 700 ft lb TQ....if that is within your build.
it is just under $3k though.
can it be modified for more HP/TQ???, contact places like D&D performance (where I got my T56) or other sponser distributers/builders of T56
I know the 94-97 versions could be upgraded to "viper" output shafts, etc. for more power levels than the 450 hp stock one was rated for.
the new production cars making 500+ HP are fitted with the TR6060

If you're launching on slicks, do a bigger mainshaft / output. If you're not, take it apart to find the 5-6 cluster gear loose and do a bigger mainshaft anyway.

Similar goals here and just picked up a Monster 11" Ceramic with lightweight flywheel after some good convos with an Fbody owner who took his setup into the 9's with this clutch. I was looking to get a twin disc but couldnt pass up on the sale price for the Monster unit.
