[QUOTE="bubblehead93, post: 14253746, member: 96609"] t56 rebuild was very straight forward, especially if you have some special tools and some mechanical aptitude, which it sounds like you do... jealous of the lift plans, someday when the military stops moving me around I'll get my dream garage... I posted a thread a little while back about t56 upgrades that had a picture and list of the special tools I found most helpful. You can get them all near new or used on ebay... A mix of the two brands, Miller and Kent-Moore is nice, some of the tools for the same task are better from one versus the other, that is why the list I posted is a mix... My car is only 525-550ish, but I enjoy the shit out of rowing the transmission I rebuilt, drag race every friday I can, autocross about once a month, and with the bronze shifter forks and billet keys, it shifts much better at 6,000 rpm... enough so I have scrubbed plans (for now) of getting a face plated gear/shaft setup... when I get back stateside, definitely going to pick up someone's discarded t56 and build it into a dedicated track transmission... the car is mostly a track day car these days, drag racing or auto crossing, alot of compromise between the two, but with 28" Hoosier slicks for the 1/4 mile (NT01s for the corner carving)... softens up the rear despite the corner carving setup... don't recommend face plating for the street...
