First Drive Tremec Magnum XL 

Cool, you will love the trans. Be sure to respect the break in period and then some. Trans is super quiet and shifts like butter. Also handles the power really well. U don’t need to change to a short throw either. The Tremec shifter is great! I just went to 4:10 again and the car and trans is a great pair. Happy to help!

@@CoyoteProductionsBoss302 Awesome thanks for the feed back, I'm going with the 4:10's also Went with the McLeod RTX twin disk since i'm about 700 wheel. Defiantly going easy ion the break in with the price of this swap. And yeah I was waiting to see how the stock shifter was before I ordered the MGW.

Ok at 700 hundred wheel the 3:73 might be spot on. Try them first it should work perfectly with that set up

Thanks Bill and likewise!!

Thanks I appreciate that! So right now I have 3.73 and yes they are pretty tall. Tremec converter shows 4.10s are pretty close to the Calimer ratio and I already have the 4.10 gear. I’m going to wait until I install the heads and Boss Racing cams before I do the gear change. It’s a drivers car right now and I’m liking that. LOL

I had Scottie’s auto do my install here in Battle Creek Michigan. Your supplier you purchased or contact Tremec and they can help you with installers in your area. I highly recommend the Tilton throw out bearing. It’s adjustable and depending on your clutch set up you may need one. Did you get the Bowler kit that converts your MT82 digital signal to the analog signal for your Tremec.

No sir I just purchased the whole swap kit off lethal performance along with the Mcleod RST clutch

I love them, however, I have the extreme contact which is a summer performance tire. I believe the tire you are talking about might come standard on a Hellcat.

Thanks, 6th gear is 0.63. It’s a great transmission for cruising, very smooth and pleasant to drive. I cruise 70 mph at 2000 rpm with 3.73 gears and > 27” tire. Top speed in 4th gear is 124 mph at 7500 rpm. Copy the link and paste it into your browser. It’s the Tremec gear ratio calculator. www.tremec.com/calculadora.php

Thank you for the info!@@CoyoteProductionsBoss302

Sorry to hear this. Hopefully your warranty will cover the issues.

Did you fix it?

Right now it’s 3.73 and a 2.97 first gear. I plan on moving to a 4.10.

​@@CoyoteProductionsBoss302 i have a s550 i was thinking about the tremic XL. I have 3:31 at the rear now should i change them to 3:73?

@@peterg6638 are you boosted? The link below will help you determine what gears you need. I recommend you have the conversation with your supplier on the close ratio gear Tremec which I believe is 2.66 first gear. The 2.97 first has a 3rd gear rpm drop. Do your modeling with the link below. www.tremec.com/calculadora.php

@@CoyoteProductionsBoss302 i am not boosted. I am looking to buy a tremic XL. I need recommendations on which one should i get the 2.66 first gear or the 297?

@@peterg6638I would go with the 2.66 first gear this is the close ratio transmission. You will need to go to a 4.10 or lower. If you don’t care about how fast is your car the the 2.97 first is a very nice driving trans. Here’s another link that might help. Maybe an opportunity for me to do a video on this. www.grannasracing.com/blogs/news/t56-magnum-close-ratio-vs-wide-ratio-which-is-best#:~:text=The%20proper%20way%20to%20do,usually%20being%20the%20sweet%20spot.

Hi yes, They don’t have a Website here’s their address & phone M-78, Battle Creek, MI 49017 269-968-2090

That’s a lot of power!

@CoyoteProductionsBoss302 Yeah I have a short uploaded on my channel

is it a stock t56?@@skullhart

@@s550sammy yes

holy shit, im just bolt ons but got my kit installed and its grinding/locking out 24/7 since I got it so now I gotta wait 5 more weeks for this shop to reinstall it ig. i heard a lot abt it not being that bulletproof and thought it might be too much for the price but seems like that's not the case@@skullhart

Well it was bad, but I sold it before I knew it was bad bc I thought the cracked clutch was the problem. I shipped it to California and refunded the guys money bc it made the same noise. I shipped it to BC and they found 2 gears that had a bad wear pattern which was not my fault. They would not warranty it and wanted $2000 to fix it and ship it back to me, had 4000 miles on it. BC gave me $1200 for parts. I wasn’t happy that they didn’t warranty gears as promised.

@@CoyoteProductionsBoss302 so you would not recommended a stage 2 from bc for the mt82

Sold it back to Calimer for parts. He wouldn’t give me the true value even though the bad gears were on him.

@@fredocastillo6984you can try some people had good luck. Stage two has stock gears and will still fail. Just depends on how you drive and your add ons for power. There’s a shop in Texas that did Bosworks. Check him out on IG, it’s a white Boss, hit him up and he’ll tell you the shops name.

​@CoyoteProductionsBoss302 heard nothing but drama's for yhe last 12 momths about calimers quality going to shit, and not honouring warranties. I wouldn't touch one unless it was free.
