tranny problems I had just recently lost 5th 6th and reverse and so i decided to tear the tranny apart and this is what i found.
Some how i ripped the teeth off of the cluster shaft where it joins with 5th 6th and reverse inside the tranny.
Thats about all that i have noiced wrong inside the tranny so far.
Any body know the difference with the F-body T56 and the GTO T56 other then gearing?

Were you grinding gears previous to losing 5th and 6th?????? How long have you had it and how many miles??? As for the Fbody T56 and the GTO T56 besides the gearing they are generally the same....

seriously, man, if you're going to rebuild it, the blocker ring setup is the same as the Corvette, hence the greater expense when you do the rebuild.

i know that the fbody t56 isnt as hefty of a trans. but it would bolt up the same wouldnt it? there isnt really a visual difference that i can tell but i dont know much about transmissions.
