Does anyone remember the approximate shipping weight of a T56,bellhousing, slave cylinder and crossmember?


Thanks!

 

140-150Ibs.

 

mine was 250 for everything

 

250 sounds more like it.

150, you crazay

 

Well lets see

T-56 = 120Ibs
bellhousing = 4-7Ibs
Master/slave cylinder = 1 1/2Ibs
crossmember = 10Ibs?

Total for parts= 135-138 Ibs

 

Are you sure thats all it weighs? I didnt have mine shipped, but it was a heavy mother. Nothing like putting a t5 in.

I shipped a T-56 with bellhousing and the package weighed exactly 150#, just enough that I could ship it UPS and not have to use Freight.

Sorry too used to including a flywheel, clutch, etc into a "package"

 

If you're getting the clutch setup that's at about another 50-60# for the steel flywheel, clutch, pressure plate, and pedal assembly. Also, palette, say 10#.

 

thanks guys, I posted it for a friend..no way you'll see a T56 in my car, I'd rather go fast

thanks again!!!@!!!!

 

Yeah especially since its been pretty well proven the 3.8 buick turbo motor doesnt work well with a stick

 

:sillylol: Just stirring the pot to see if anyone would bite on it

 

Turbo motors in general don't work well with sticks. That's one reason I prefer blowers.

The whole "hit the gas and wait for the turbo to spool up and THEN go" thing annoys me. Plus it's easier to plumb for a blower.

 

depends on a lot of things here. Tune of the car is VERY important..too rich it'll take the turbo forever to spool

with the stock turbo and a 2500 stall converter there was no lag at all

Stepping up to a TE60 and a 3000 stall(among many, many other things ). We'll see how the spool on that is, won't be as fast as the stocker but when it kicks in you better grab your nuts because they're gonna fly into your throat
