T-56 Question
How much torque are they rated for? What can realisticly be ran through them?
Thanks!

You have walked onto the biggest baddest dog porch and you will be dealt with accordingly.
I'd rather be historically accurate than politically correct!

Not sure about the max power, most of my friends with high powered LT1 and LS1 cars have automatics.

They are rated somewhere around 450 ft/lbs.
However, I know of a few cars putting out WELL over that (600-700 ft/lb range) on the stock T-56. Considering its a stock tranny, it is VERY strong.
