My car is done at the shop... unfortunatly I found this out to a message on the answering machine and they are closed. I can't wait to get it tommorrow.

Anyway, they said the tranny was kinda beat up on the inside, and that the syncros were trashed. I can't wait to hit a nice 1 --> 2 shift , haven't been able to do it yet with the new motor/tranny/rear combo.

Anyway, should I be breaking this in after a rebuild??

 

i'm no expert but i would break it in. don't fill it with fluid and start ragging on it. nice and slow at first. then i would slowly increase the "pain" and get it "used to" your driving habits, whatever they may be. i went 100 miles of city driving before i let all hell break loose on my t-56. it's doing fine to this day. this is with a used clutch. not a new one. if your using a new clutch remember they require being "broken in".

 

The newly rebuilt T56 shifts like butter!

Now only thing left.... is getting a track time.

 

L98 how much did it cost you and did you buy it part buy part if not did you buy it from a junk yard or from a web site or somebody also how long did it take and was there any special part or parts that were need and was your camaro auto or stick before you did this?



THANKS FOR any answers.

 

EMRA has an event July 3rd at Pocono Raceway if you're feeling like hitting the twisties...I'm off work that day so I'll likely head down.
