BI6TIM had one I think.
Let us know how the fancy T5 goes once its behind the motor. There isnt much point telling everyone how good they are when its not in yet. |

This guy broke 3rd in one. On the next car he built he went for a T56.

And it all cost me under $3000 delivered to my door
Herse's are the site i bought it from: http://www.gforcetransmissions.com/tran_gt-5.asp I haven't got the gearbox out yet to see why i've broken a tooth but should do this afternoon, i will put some picks up of my discovery |

well that guy that broke the g-force trans 3rd gear would be me, thats was some time ago in my stolen car. The gearbox was really was a dream to have but to be honest i had the chance to do it all again and i went for the t56 and it worked out to be less than $2k

I ebayed T56 Tremec 6 Speed, and these 2 listings stood out at me.
http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Tremec-T56-6-speed-gearbox-/130509505956?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item1e62f905a4 Here's a T56, from a Commy, 40,000 ks, 8 days to go from the 17th April, it's $1,800. http://cgi.ebay.com.au/6-SPEED-MANUAL-GEARBOX-TREMEC-T56-VZ-SS-COMMODORE-5-7L-/320684561462?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item4aaa4a1436 Here's another one for sale, bidding is around 510 dollars so far. If/when my auto goes pop in my EL, I was going to try to get one of these for it, so I can turbo or supercharge it in the future if I want, I'm not sure if I'll be able to afford it but we can all dream.
