I really like the MN12/Z06 gear ratios, and would like to have them in a regular (engine-mounted) T56 package (as opposed to the C5 torque tube setup). Any ideas on where I could find the required parts?? Would also do all of the (reasonable) upgrades at the same time.
Also, any place to get gears made out of better material?? I am shooting for 600 RWHP out of a 427, and would like the transmission to be as bulletproof as possible.
Thanks, all...

Putting the MN12 gears in will lower the torque limit of the transmission. Why go through the expense of that...just install 4.10 axle gears...With 4.10s, you'll get an even bigger boost than the lower trans gears will offer. To go through the trans like that will cost a fortune...Really,the only thing you need is a steel or iron 3-4 shift fork.
