Putting the tranny back in was the biggest PITA ever!!!!

But, we got it down. Installed the TICK remote bleeder too, what a nice little system! The only mistake we made was not draining the tranny fluid before putting the tranny back in, and ended up showered by tranny fluid.

After all said and done, it went pretty smooth and the clutch engages early now and grabs strong! At break-in period it is still a little slippery, but still grab hard nonetheless.

Hey, thanks for the offer man. I did not see your post until today. We got it done, took us a total working time of 12 hours with 3 hour break here and there.

That's pretty much all you need, minus the master. I have not installed the master yet, cause you dont need to get the tranny out for that one. Oh, and go to autozone and get a 24" extension for $11. Worth every penny!!
Two advice if you want to do it yourself:
1) DRAIN the tranny fluid first!!
2) Buy a tranny jack, or get a tranny jack converter for $50 at harbor freight or something.
The hardest thing for us, as i mentioned earler was to put the tranny back in place. That this is HEAVY man.

If i was closer, i would have done it for ya. Ive dropped t56s way too many times on about 5 f-bodies.. Hell, i had 2 WS.6s BOTH on jackstands in my garage side by side. It took me about 10 hours to drop both T56s, clean em up, and reinstall them both. I DONT use a trans jack either.. But then again i am 6'2" and 230lbs.
