I might need a T-56 rebuilt...any close recommendations? I just picked up the car Friday, for the test drive I didn't get on it much, I just kind of went through all the gears and a quick 10 minute drive around the town with the guy. I've noticed it seems very hard to engage in gears at anything above 4,000 rpms. At first I chalked it up to this being my first manual and not being used to it, but I drove my brother's WS6 a few years ago and didn't seem to have any trouble rowing through the gears, even as a much less experienced M6 driver. I'm going to have him take it out soon and get his opinion.
...so long story short, any recommendations on where to look for a rebuilt T-56 or other options?

Finish Line is close to 2k, and T56 rebuilds seem to be much less.
Car will only see bolt-ons @ 350 whp, and possibly the max down the line would be nitrous at 450 whp. Would only hit the drag strip a couple times and is a daily driver for the warm months.
Reasoning for one being so much cheaper than the other?
