How many hours did it take to install your T-56 trannies?
I am about to do the swap in the summer and I was wondering how many hours it took to swap an auto to a T-56.
i went from an t-5 to t-56 so it was a little easier, especially with the slave cyl. mounting. i would say about5 hours, an hour an a half of that was trying to get the inout shaft to line up right.
