You won't be "massaging" your torsion bar crossmember or your trans tunnel. You will be cutting and reshaping. If you're fine with that, then ya it can be done. Building a t56 for mine as well. Cheaper than the aftermarket 5sp kits and the .5 ratio 6th gear is very appealing.

I dont know how the viper tranny compares to the one in my 2010 Challenger but with 3.91 gears in 6th gear we are around 1700rpm at 70mph,seems like a no brainer on a car I plan on driving all over the place.

Guess I better start printing out some of this stuff,thx guys.


who is that guy?

Brian,

If you can get ahold of Tony Edler at Hurst you'll learn a lot. He is the guy to talk to. Hurst has a bunch of the conversion parts as well as the transmissions. Contact information is in the back of my B-body book.

Thanks Andy(451boy)
I thought I had that book,now I do

Not sure I ever mentioned it or not 10-15 years back but you were the reason I built so many low deck strokers,after the first one I just fell in love with them,the 431 is still in a 69 RR to this day.

I might even do one more to get me by untill I get another modern hemi and 6-speed.

If you are looking for a modern hemi I have a brand new 5.7 complete from pan to airbox, also has stick bellhousing and flywheel and the front belt drive, cheaper than building a motor, and I live in your town. Pm if interested.

If you have not already found a T56 you should consider just buying a BRAND NEW T-56 Magnum.





Agreed. That's what I did.

What in the world is a T-56 Magnum?

Weird how things can change in an instant,I ended up with a 426 Hemi crate motor today and front to back TTI exhaust for it along with a Dana 60,this was not the plan but I was not able to pass it up.

That being said I may have to do this modern hemi 6-speed car but with the 67 Plymouth vert I found for $1800.
