Good lord son, what gives??? From what I hear the T-56's are a tough cookie, I have never heard of anyone breaking one.....but I dont know a whole lot of people who have 1000+ HP vehicles. Youtube has that one yellow viper running a 7.99 in the 1/4 on a stock T-56

My problem is the weight of the truck 5500lbs in to the 12s is hard on a trans plus the way i drive on the street dose not help.Fahrenheit said:

He's burning thru 727's not T-56's ...... T-56s are TOUGH.... these are anyway

How much can you spend on a really strong auto trans?

get a T56 out of an 08 viper...they are stronger, shorter throws, better engagement

How much can i spend or how much could be spent? Im have no desire to spend money on it as of now , so far i have 4000 worth of core 727 and 2800 worth of over drive i cant use. If its just a general question on pricing i have been quoted. 10 grand all billet 727. 8000 on the oem trans but was told that they would not hold up to street/ road course driving with the weight. Thats no warranty also.supercar1of1 said:

First one was TCI second was Carls transmission in baytown using replacement parts that tci sent me using my 1000 credit line i had with them because of returned parts.
Wonder what the conversion would cost me?BurntRubber said:
Just went over the guts of the 727 found a broke snap ring on the pump but it was still in place . The plates in the forward drum are a warped and the clutches are burnt but this is due to the failure and not the cause. We are leaning towards a valve body failure.

a used T56 1500.....g force build 4000......a tranny rated for 1500 plus hp 5500......clutch setup a couple thousand more
James your screwed. lol. I have a faceplated G-force trans in the rustang. Its taken a bunch of street abuse including some 8000+ rpm shifts without a hitch. The track hasn't been open since the motor and trans went in but I can tell you I have complete confidence that it will hold up. Granted this is in a 2800lb car. I would call and talk to them see if they think it will take the abuse of that heavy truck

Who did you have build your 727?
I suggest you give John Cope a call http://coperacingtrans.com/ he did the trans in my Duster. And he has done alot of high horsepower vehicles without problems.

Weight seems to be the common problem.spedly said:
I spoke with him Monday he said i need to drop at least 500lbs and to stop splitting the gears with the gear vendors unit. Said he could build me one for 2500 but no warranty.Begood said:
That drops about a 100lbs.ZCx said:
yeah, the no ac, crank windows with the 3.5L....or maybe a few 4.7's ...
