I had to ask. Is there a solution other than having parts fabricated that you would know of?

I know the search can be a little picky but this post was like 6 posts down on the front page.

There's a kit you can buy but it's around $1500 plus a tranny. If your not making serious power it's not worth it. I'd tell you the website but I can't remember. You can google it tho.

You won't be able to use the 6th gear until above 80mph. The torque just isn't there.

Same project as a 3.4.(see above link) Infact I do not know of anyone that has done a 3.4, I was using 3.8 project as the base line.

carefully... LOL no one took the chance i had too...


So honestly is there a reason your going to a T56? In the 6 Cyl cars i doubt you'd ever use 6th gear... it seems like it could be a waste of time and effort...

Is your 6 more powerful than normal?
