does anyone know a shop that can rebuild a t56 locally or sell them remanufactured? I am looking for someone that has a good reputation.

 

i think force fed performance does rebuild trannys. www.t56rebuild.com does excellent job on rebuilding trannys. Their shop is based in michigan but alot of people haved shipped out their tranny to them

 

im curious too, my synchros feel like they're on the way out. debating between having it done, or muddling through it myself. I've done several autos (700s, 350s, 400s) but never a stick. Did watch someone do a T-5, but the T-56 is a different ball game.

oh dude, i ordered my ws6store short stick last night

How's that LS7 clutch? Wonder if that would bolt up to my car.. I heard you had to use an LS2 flywheel though.

 

im curious too, hows the ls7 clutch compare to stock?

 

urbanhunter , great choice on the short stick. i love my 6' ws6 store short stick. Urban you could always take ur tranny to the palce that did mine. He did a great job but too over a month do get it done. As far as my ls7 clutch, it feels great, the clutch grabs a little sooner then the stock z06 clutch but I have gotten used to it. If u don't like how the clutch grabs sooner, you could always put a shim behind the slave cylinder. the clutch petal feels exactly like my stocker. in order to use the ls7 clutch, u need to have an ls2 flywheel. I dunno if the ls2 flywheel will work on an lt-1 thought. U need to ask people on ls1tech. Overall the feel of the ls7 clutch is awesome. The clutch petal is as light as a feather and the clutch could handle over 500rwhp. I tell u guys how the clutch handles after i get my heads/cam installed in the near future

 

so besides a light pedal, what else is a benifit?

 

no chatter, capable of handling over 500rwhp, stock like feel, street manners(learn that from driving my friends 00ss with a spec 3 clutch), and very cheap. What else u looking for in a clutch.

 

doesn't chatter at all? Every T-56 I've ever driven has chattered a little bit, mine talks to me non-stop damn it would be worth it just so it wouldn't chatter anymore. I need to find out if it'll bolt to an LT1.

 

nope never chatter on me. Urban i let ur drive the car so u could feel the clutch.

 

Bennie - Give ATO Performance Trans. a call.
They are probably one of the best at auto trannys, but autos only.
Maybe they can recommend a shop or seller.
