I need my LT1 T56 built with a Viper main shaft or similar. Are there any shops in Houston that still build T56s? If not, I'll probably just drive up to TDP.

 

id maybe give Scott @ KP Racing a call. I used to rebuild t56s with him over at t56rebuilds/six speeds inc.

 

They said they were too swamped with wor and that it would cost $5500 any way. Doesn't seem right to me.

 

Did you try LMR? Most of our customers just send their stuff to RPM.

 

I'll give them a call. Tdp quoted me under $2k for what I need done. So if it's around that price, I may. Just to save me the trip to ft worth

 

I contacted TDP and they are busting thier *** to get the parts machined before I get there. They said they should be able to finish it pretty quick after I drop it off to them and should be able to drive there and back in the same day. They worked to earn my business so I'm gonna stick with them. Thanks for the references.

 

dang. that sounds like a pretty awesome road trip.

 

Jason is a good dude, I used to talk to him on AIM back in the early 00s when he had his Lt1 TA and IROC, always seemed like a cool dude.
