I am torn between the TKO-600 and the T56. I need a tough tranny that can take the pounding of the track but still be great on the street.

I will not go to an A/T set up, it has to stay manual.

I have read up on both and they both get rave reviews. Anyone out there with either one that could provide me with your input???? It's being powered by at stroked 4.6, so the factory T45 was out of the question....

Hey stranger!!! Long time no see! From my experiance, and from knowing you, I'd say go with the TKO. You'll be much happier at the track with it. The T-56 can be a pain during the 2-3 shift. Get a good ratio for the 5th gear, and it will be good on the street for ya!!


~BTW~ When are we getting together again!!!!!
