Here's a few pictures of how well my coffee table can hold up. In case you're wondering, I am THE MAN around my house, so I can do these things whenever I want. Ok, I'm single.

It's a T56 from a '99 Trans Am. Rated for 450 ft lbs. I look forward to breaking it.




It'll go behind this if I ever get it done...

Cooool!
I have a Quicktime Bell (RM6077) which I am using to mate my T56 Magnum to my 572 (Aluminium) Hemi.

When I tried it last week it didn't fit. Turns out the T56 Magnum has a different front to the std T56. Anyway the guys at Quicktime have been helpful and the Bell can, with slight modification, be made to fit the T56 Magnum. Just in case you need to upgrade to a Magnum after you grenade you T56.

Looks cool. You definately validated you MAN card for 2010. Congrats!

As far as breaking it, if your going to drag it with good tires, keep the shock load down with a soft-lock clutch and it might last awhile.

Glad to see you'll have three pedals.

The plan at that point, money always being an issue, will be to either upgrade another stock type transmission or run the tranzilla setup, which is complete overkill, but also on the north end of what my money tree produces.

Hopefully I can just upgrade this one with all the goodies as I'm planning more road course than drag so the shock shouldn't be nearly as much of an issue. I expect the synchros will take a beating as that seems to be a weak spot on these transmissions when power levels are increased. Guess I'll find out. From the information I've read, you can increase the power capacity of these just by shimming the countershaft properly. Most of them have too much endplay and that allows things to bang around a bit. Haven't taken this one apart yet, but the price was right ($300) so I couldn't pass it up. Shafts turn smooth in every gear. It was a mock up piece for Mr. Gasket here in Carson. Or rather their Hurst shifter division. Can't remember who owns who.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say he either lives alone or soon will be living alone.

Bellhousing looks good.

Ok, yeah, maybe. Funny thing was I had a female friend coming over the next night, and I planned on having it all cleaned up before she got here. Long story short, got hung up with family stuff, and she got the see the whole mess. Figure why bother pretending to be someone I'm not eh? lol

So needless to say, but you no longer have a female friend.

lol, she's still talking to me. I think women see men as unfinished projects. No wonder they get grouchy the longer they're married!
