Is it worth it?
I guess my question is simple. Is swapping a 700R-4 out for a T-56 worth it? I have a friend who will do the installation for about $400 bucks. Then the cost of the transmission and ALL the parts. It's mind blowing! I know it would be more fun with a six speed, but does anybody regret it? Is it a fair price to pay for the change?
