Has anybody successfully done a 5th and 6th delete and ran a 4 speed Vertigate shifter on it? T-56s can be built to handle more power than the old school 4-speeds and I'm looking ahead to build a big block chevy for somewhere around 1200 horsepower boosted. I've heard that even with the occasional trip to the strip if you're smart the built T-56s can handle about that power level. The problem is, I really gots my heart set on a vertigate shifter and that's really only possible with a four speed. Well, since the four speeds can't be built to handle quite so much power (The most I've ever heard of someone running a T-10 with was 850 horse, and that trans was built to hell) I thought it would be neat to just tear the overdrives out of a T-56 and rig up the vertigate to that. Anyone have any ideas as to how feasible that is?
