I found a couple places online where I could get a t56 for about $1300. Tho would have to eat the $300 core charge since Im replacing my t45. The problem is these have crappy. 2.66 first gears. Looks like I have to dish out $2300-$2700 for a t56 with 2.97 first gear. Are these just trannies out of different cars or is the more expensive one with 2.97 first been rebuilt with the deeper gear? I want the .80 5th and the .62 6th. Im more into auto-x and open track stuff. I have 4.10's but dont want to loose it all off the line. How can I get a 6 speed and have a decent hole shot without spending alot of $$$. Also I know I need a shorter shaft, but what else must be done to do the swap?
