Try: www.rocklandstandardgear.com . They build transmissions of all levels, even offer different ratios if you desire to set the tranny up for a specific purpose.

Here is the link to the Racing and Performance Area of their site.

The Viper racing tranny is model T56-018M.
List Price-$3500 Racer Net $2400, exchange

What is Racer Net?

 

[FrankBarba]

Racer's Net = Price you pay if your a racer...not a ricer.

I spoke to the guys at Rockland about fixing my tranny as they stock T-56 parts which are apparently hard to come by for some unknown reason. They seem to know their stuff.

 

[CHAD]

G-Force is the best and has proved it. Pricing is competitive. No reason to even take a chance with anyone else.

 

[vegasviper]

How much for G-Foce w/ exchange?

Also, can first gear be extended for us SC guys for more first gear MPH before running out of RPMs

 

[STUGOTS]

www.viperspeed.com they do them for $2500 /w core

 

[vegasviper]

I would like to spend my money on a proven and tested transmission. Can i get input from those who have taken the step of upgrading and how those transmissions are holding up to the abuse of serious HP

They are the premier Tremec certified Tremec service facility.

The G-Force T-56 sure sounds awesome:

[FrankBarba]

if your looking for tested tranny's. look to either Jerico or Richmond....

 

[CHAD]

I've tested mine. G-Force!

 

[vegasviper]

So, how about first gear ratio can i get more MPH with a change

 

[CHAD]

They have lower ratios. You'd have to ask them about higher. Why would you want a longer 1st gear though?

 

[vegasviper]

No traction in first gear

 

[VPRTKMIKE]

I would recommend g force, i have one in a customers car they are great to deal with.

 

[CHAD]

No traction in first gear

Not the way to fix it. Try Kuhmos and some modulation.
