TREMEC T56 MAGNUM-F vs LS T56 vs TR6060 vs MAGNUM XL 

IT just happened to me, had to scroll down and look for this comment, I find solace in the fact that im not alone

Sorry ☺️☺️

@@GrannasRacing wondering is it posible to use a core shifter 1993-02 Camaro Z28 Firebird Trans Am t56 on a 2010 camaro tr6060 with the shifter relocated forward modd??

I found a cheap shifter relocator from a 99-02 n already removed the oem tr6060 n need a shifter upfront now for the tr6060 so wondering if it was possible pretty much what im askin

@@joserodriguez-of7sr great video thanks

What t56 transmission would you use in a 72 Chevelle 4 speed so the shifter and hole on in the floor not changed there is a factory console?

I need to get a better setup than iPhone audio, in my shop the sound doesn’t cooperate

@@GrannasRacing sounds alright on my phone lol

Is the GTO one of those rebadged Holden Monaco's they have in the states?

@@jordanbowey4175 yeah basically a left hand drive holden monaro with pontiac stickers on it

If it were me... I’d send the TKO600 out for upgrades. Cryo treat gears/shafts. Face plate the syncro’s ect.

@@matthewnosal6893 I'm considering that too. I've heard some say the TKO 600 is actually stronger than the 6 speeds and break less at thr track. Obviously I can't substantiate that claim but I do know a lot of drag racers who say the same.

Rdubfalco ....and if you’re already set up for it. Clutch, bell housing, shifter ect... miles ahead in the money part. Starting from the ground up. Yeah a T56 sounds enticing but damn it’s big buck$$$.

well the T56 Magnum is rated for higher TQ, has way more aftermarket support, and a wide selection of gear ratios to match up to diff ratrios, however the cd009 was designed to fit in G's and 350's so it would probably be a relatively easy swap into ur car.

I have them in stock! Let me know info@grannasracing.com if you’d like a quote on one

I have a stroker 383 with an LT1 based T56 in my 89 formula firebird. My car was a factory 305tpi / 700r4 car but I didnt have to cut my tunnel farther back. I attempted a lt1 center console and it all fit perfectly fine. The console was junked and I made a custom metal one to hold my switches in something stronger than plastic. This was back in 2001 or so when I built that car. I still have it. The biggest problem back then was getting a clutch to hold and actually last because the engine was a bit over built for driving on the street but I did it anyway. You dont need to cut up your tunnel to run a T56 unless you moved the engine back, as far as I know. I think I remember something about t5 cars that went to a T56 would have to cut about an inch off the back of their tunnel's shifter hole. I don't know your build though. The T56 conversion was rather easy with a car that started off as an auto

@@jonathanhudson4623 I had a buddy swap a normal t56 Mag and 6.0L in a 87 IROC and he had to extend is shifter 3in+cut the tunnel to reach the stock location.

How did this work out for you?

Been waiting for them to release these trans since I started doing these swaps

Yep! I usually do a tax sale and a Black Friday sale

Yep, but i am 99% sure the falcon/Aussie tr6060 also has the issue with the input shaft not being right length for the 2jz bell. Basically gotta swap the input for a GM version. And it’s not super easy on these trans, gotta tear down the entire gearset

@@GrannasRacing Yeah we use the GM/Holden one not the ford as it has the correct length input shaft and it is more common then the ford ones. Also can be had for less than 700usd used. Pretty cool to see how different it is across the ditch.

TheKozary if they could be found here for $700 would make it worth it for sure

Yea, you can run the LS T56 with it, it has two notches in the bell at the top where you could get the lines out, its just kinda tight with the tunnel there. The LS synchros don't like the RPM's as much tho

I just gotta get the offset shifter handles made, other than that I have everything ready to rock!

The 6060 uses a shift rod that comes out of the tailcase. If you mean “LS t56” when you say “regular t56” then the magnum-F is exactly the same dimensionally. Not sure on the ctsv… but I think it’s the same as the camaro 6060 just with different shifter

Thanks, been so busy but this just needed to be done... been wanting to make this video for over 2 years

Probably. I’d say the regular magnum (non-F) would probably put the shifter in the best location though

Found it... thanks

Magnum F is same as Ls fbody, I have 100+ magnumF in stock if you are looking for one. Email me grannasracing.com/contact

They are the same, only the “extension” shifter on the gto is different. But you can put the gto shifter on the magnum-F to make it work just the same

I sell 99 close ratios to only 1 wide. The wide has bigger gaps between 1-4 gears which causes a bigger drop in rpm on shifts, which causes a turbo application to fall out of power more on shifts.

They rate them at 700 ft lbs at 4000lbs… So drop 25% of that 4000lbs and the rating goes up accordingly. And yes these trans are freakishly strong

@@GrannasRacing Thanks for the explanation! Can you adapt one to work on a Gen 2 Viper? I contacted Tremec and they said the magnum-f isn't available for them. They did say Chrysler sells a Magnum for it but I'm not sure how that works since the size would be off.

@@kellyjensen9425 call Tick performance. They’ve got all the information you need and keep these trans in stock and ready to ship.

Regular magnum tuet11010 email me if you want a quote grannasracing.com/contact

reach out to Liberty's Gears in michigan if you need your TR6060 or transaxle transmission upgraded. they make the parts and will rebuild your transmission with them.

Steve, shoot me an email and we can discuss this, I’ll need some dimensions and I can get you setup. GrannasRacing.com/contact

yes, i have a kit now for the MX83 - fill this out and i'll send a quote grannasracing.com/quote

@@grannasinfo6666 thank you all filled out

not if you ever want to service the transmission or change a clutch or do anything like that. You need that space to allow the engine to lean back so you can tilt the trans down and get to all the top bolts

Email me through my website and we can talk options

We are a two person operation so I really don’t have the time to rebuild yours. I can sell you the magnum-F that replaces yours. It is tuet16363 “wide” ratio. If you google that part # my site should pop up

Mk3 uses regular magnum. Lines up near perfect, check out my website for the mk3 kit pictures www.grannasracing.com/products/mk3-supra-t56-magnum-swap-kit-2jz-mkiii-jza70 Also the magnum-f does NOT have the mech speed output which the mk3 needs.

Would need measurements to your shifter hole location. Email me if you want to discuss further info@grannasracing.com

Front plate patterns are all the same, yes.

Yes, developing this winter

Also this is a street car, what gear ratios should I shoot for 2.66 first gear magnum F? Or the 2.97

My rotary magnum kits require almost no modification to the tunnel other than light tapping right at the front of the tunnel hole. Check out this video, I talk about it here ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-efii5xAZx_8.html

Prob 1500 rpm if that lol. Wouldn't be surprised if its lower. *edit* 1700 rpm at 70 with 28 inch tall tire and ablit 1900 same speed with a 26.

Sounded perfectly clear to me.

After race season!

The Fbody tailcase output is about 2" further forward, so you would need a longer driveshaft

For my racecar? It’s faceplated, I talk about it at @3:40
