SOLD LT1 T56 Fully rebuilt and upgraded FRESH plus extras!
SOLD
$2000 and shipping is available. I'm in Chicago (Northside)
This LT1 T56 was built by Michael Davis (85MikeTPI) using:
billet keys on 1-2, 3-4, 5-6
full bronze fork pads
steel 3-4 fork
new second gear (that's what was initially wrong with it when I originally purchased the transmission)
There's 97 pics here of it being rebuilt, but I'll add some here just for the hell of it too. Note how clean even the case is Transmission and all parts have less than 500 miles on them!:

Didn't you just put this in? What's the reason for selling it?

Re: LT1 T56 Fully rebuilt and upgraded FRESH plus extras!
Sadly yes I just got it in and on the road..........but I found this car that I'm swapping my parts onto:
https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/body...tub-shell.html
And after some thought, I'm going LS swap which means this trans has to go. I considered doing the LS conversion to it, but a complete trans swap will be easier.
I sold a stock T56 for this price last year, so I'm sure this one won't last especially since it was built by a known member of this board.

Lots of interest, but nothing concrete. Literally sold the engine yesterday, so the trans is now out and ready to ship.

That .5:1 6th gear means you can have a very tall rear end and still cruise comfortably on the highway. I've 4.57:1 gears and only push 2K rpm's @ 70mph!

I can attest to how clean this transmission is. I am the one who bought the motor it was behind. Whoever buys it will not be dissapointed!
