Old school 350,
Tremec T56 6 Speed,
Lt1 front plate and input shaft,
Mutang Cobra mainshaft, shiftrails, and tailhosing,
Cobra parts move shifter furher foward
94 Camaro starter, slave, and clutch (clutch for max hp around 280)my motor is mild and clutch slips a litle
SPEC or Centerforce Fly wheel required to mate LT1 clutch to 87 and earlier 350 ($380)respectively
If your longbed is dropped 3" a one peice driveshaft works no clearencing other than removing the support bearing bracket from the frame k-memmber
other mods include:
custom shifter unless buckets are used
custom trans crossmemmber or modfy a gm one to work, "trans should be as close to cab floor as possible"
what else, uh.....

Oh yeah, ther are better choices for a clutch master than what i used but it wasn't to hard to connect the pedal arm to it.
A little ingenuity is all it takes.
The hydraulic fittings for plastic slaves and masters are different than for aluminum grab some from a salvage yard because a shop that makes hoses
isn't likely to have them.


I built this trans while working for SIXSPEEDSINC.COM 888-937-4411
$1900 for fresh rebuilt T56
W/ carbon fiber syncro rings,
billet slider keys,
and steel 3/4 fork,
rated to 700+ HP or TRQ.
They have a one year warranty man!
