I don't know exactly what you mean by "complete" but I may have a trans for you. How much of a rush are you in?

Re: WTB: Complete T5 setup

Not in any particular rush; I just purchased a daily driver and now I can afford the downtime to do a swap.

Did I say T5? I meant T56! Why would anybody in their right mind want a T56 when they can have the miracle of engineering that is the t5?????

That is what I meant to say! The T5 is a FANTASTIC transmission.

Re: WTB: Complete T5 setup

I'd prefer a T56, but there are some things about the LT1 T56 I don't like such as it's gearing, the clutch set up, the fact that I need to jump through hoops to get that reluctor to work with our ECU. At least T5s are cheap enough to break... plus should that Aftermarket T56 like Don has ever come up for sale, it will work with the T5 clutch system.
