Lets say you go all out... get a built level 3 4l60e. Might hold that much.. but if you have 800 hp you have the money to do a built 4l80e conversion.
and that is where the fun is at.
if your redline is raised like mine ( 6700) 190ish at redline in 5th.........in 6th its like 280 and ud need a few thousand hpQuote:

the t-56 is made to handle much more than 400hp boys and the rear is only a problem when u beat on it........simply going fast isnt beating on itQuote:

what does 10 second cars have to do with top speed? NOTHINGQuote:

Upper gears in a STOCK tranny arent meant to handle that much HP.
5th gear alone tops out at 181 MPH but I dont think any stock tranny has scene that.
6th at 268 mph.
kinda obvious.
the c5 has the same tranny ( diff rear) and goes over 180.....nextQuote:

Do some research on the internals of a t-56 that was used on the F-BODIES.
LS1 Performance Information > Vehicle Specific > Firebird / WS6

And I don't do high speeds. 5th and 6th gear are not meant for WOT runs.
well i was just wondering how fast can i really go with a stock t-56 and where can i get a rebuild and i mean a badass rebuild with good stuff or just get a new -t56 or will a 2007 z06 tranny work with an ls1
See. I have read all over ls1.com/ls1tech lsall.com ls2.com, im 20 and i dont have kids. Readings is all i do :)Quote:

look it man I think you would like it
Stock T56 is stout, the weakest parts in stock form is the clutch, hydraulics, followed closely by the aluminum shift forks.
the stock t-56 is rated at 450ft lbs, if i remember correctly. I've seen a few people stomping out more than that on a stock one.
ditto, slave will go out super fastQuote:
