Transmission Variant
T56 Transmission
The T56 transmission is a 6-speed manual gearbox originally developed by BorgWarner and later manufactured by Tremec. Known for its strength and smooth shifting, the T56 became a popular choice in high-performance vehicles such as the Chevrolet Camaro, Dodge Viper, Ford Mustang Cobra, and Corvette C5. It has the ability to hold typically between 400–600 lb-ft.
T56 Magnum Transmission
The T56 Magnum transmission is a stronger and more modern version of the original T56, made by Tremec for high-performance street and race cars. It still has 6 gears, but the inside parts are tougher and better built. It uses triple-cone synchronizers on the first four gears, which helps it to shift faster and more smoothly. It’s built to handle more power and work better in powerful custom or factory cars.
T56 Manual Transmission
The T56 manual transmission features six forward gears and one reverse gear, with close-ratio gearing designed for high-performance driving. Its 5th and 6th gears are overdrive, helping improve fuel economy during highway drives.
T56 Sequential Transmission
The T56 Sequential Transmission is typically rated for torque capacities between 600 to 1,200 lb-ft, depending on the specific build and internal upgrades.
