[QUOTE="RedVenom48, post: 16291549, member: 166576"] Its all marketing. TR6060 is the transmissions code name for OEM applications. T56 is too well known of a brand to discontinue its use, so Tremec uses it for aftermarket applications [URL="https://tremec-blog.com/the-differences-between-the-tremec-t-56-and-magnum-6-speed/"]The Differences Between the TREMEC T-56 and Magnum 6-Speed – TREMEC Blog: Get Connected[/URL] However, the T56 and T56 Magnum XL are completely different transmissions internally. The Magnum XL/6060 are nearly identical internally. Compared to the T56, the Magnum XL/6060's have much beefier gears, bearings and synchronizer assemblies. The issue the 6060 has is that the OEM specified synchronizer RINGS are sub par for the kind of abuse a high HP/Torque engine needs when shifting high load. So when it comes to finding a solution to the 2nd grind or gear lockout issues, a rebuild with the Tremec specified Hybrid syncro rings for all gears, new bearings and bronze fork pads should positively improve the 6060's performance. The way that the MGW2 shifter mounts and interfaces to the 6060, its darn near the same as if the 6060 had a direct mount shiter. The local Tremec dealer who also happens to be a Mustang performance shop here in Phoenix told me that ALL TR6060s have grind issue. He's got Chevy and Dodge shops sending them TR6060s for rebuilds in addition to dealing with the GT500s. [/QUOTE]
