  2. [quote name='NOS XR' post='611839' date='Dec 20 2007, 08:33 PM']T56 for the Boss is shorter than the T56 for the Inline 6. Good luck no finding a box that fits and works, I'll line up for one if you find the way to do it.[/quote] is the box thats shorter? or just the bell housing that you un-bolt, shorter on the v8?????. You will find that all the boxes are the same length, it is only the bolt on ends that are differant, Why would a factory tool up for differant sizes of the same thing, they use the same case and higher or lower grade internals. The best box runs i think 10 bearings and the next one 8 for example.
  3. [quote name='f-wolf' post='611080' date='Dec 19 2007, 03:25 PM']I think there are some different gear ratios as well.[/quote] look at this sight and it will tell you them [url="http://www.ttcautomotive.com/English/products/T-56.asp"]http://www.ttcautomotive.com/English/products/T-56.asp[/url]
  4. [quote name='XR06T' post='611051' date='Dec 19 2007, 02:23 PM']i was talking about your viper box for $1k usd. that is not a ford box.[/quote] no it isen't, but i wasen't puting it up for sale it is my owne little project. I may be in the tree industry now but i am an auto electrician and have worked on a few hot rods and difficult projects just for fun and to show others it could be done. 10 years ago i fitted a el bbe setup on an eb cos ford said it couldent be done (and for only $200.).
  5. go to post 8 FORD T56 GEAR BOX not holden, chevy or any other brand. FORD !!!!!!!!!! I am not selling them ,just thought people would be intersted in them.
  6. [quote name='stealthxr' post='610739' date='Dec 18 2007, 10:40 PM'], The input shafts on the V8 version of the T56 is different , as is the holden t56 i have already done what you are doing.....Dont know about the viper 1 thou, so be very careful, thats a lot of coin to lose if it dont fit, Pm Mal Wood he will point you in the right direction... Im sure he will even do you a good deal if you ask nicely ! pete[/quote] so just use a differant bearing, but i thought the v8 and t were the same ??? look at this [url="http://www.ttcautomotive.com/English/products/tremec.asp"]http://www.ttcautomotive.com/English/products/tremec.asp[/url]

  8. [quote name='Adrian6T' post='610709' date='Dec 18 2007, 09:52 PM']Im interested to know what is needed also. Its a bit risky to buy it if everyones not sure if it can fit. A little bit more info is required.[/quote] It is a ford T56 gear box new. I think it has a v8 bellhousing if you want specs call gary and ask him what you want to know. Remember it is only the box, i never stated it cane with all the other parts or someone to fit it. I am going to use a viper box as i have been told that they are the strongest ones of the T56. I know it is out of a v10 dodge but the bellhousing un-bolts and for $1000usd why the hell not(only found out tonight). From other post on here the other parts needed should only cost around $1300, so for less than $3000 i have a allmost new t56 with a stage 3 clutch($300+from the states). Let your fingers do the walking and call found this hope it helps him!!!!http://www.ttcautomotive.com/English/products/tremec.asp
  9. I have prsted this in responce to a thred I just red that has been closed. If you have been riped off, as some people say they feel they have, do what you do best, tell all of your friends and people you know. I owne a busness and am out to make money, but I offer a differant type of service! Fairness if I over quote a job I dont rub my hands together and laugh, I give a little back and it pays of in the way of those people tell there friends and I make 3, 4, even 5 times as much from referals. 70% of my customer bace is now from referals and I turn over nearly $160000 a year only working 3-4 days a week and I am one of the better/ cheeper priced around. Some of the sight sponcers are right get a quote, get 10 if you can it is your money, bat as I allways say dont go for the cheapest go with the one who offers you advice for free and talks to you as an equal not as an idiot/dumb ass. We are all the same we just want the most for our $ wether this is for product service or customer service (hopefully both) IT's YOUR CASH!!!
  10. [quote name='Tree Monkey' post='610704' date='Dec 18 2007, 09:41 PM']i have no idea, just a little scared to write anything cos it gets modified to what they want. I think you will need most other parts as it is only the box and i think a ford v8 bell housing there is a list on the sight of all parts needed i will try to find out.[/quote] found it i think [url="http://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=32569"]http://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=32569[/url]

  12. any one intersted in a new T56 for $3500. I have negotiated a ford xr6turbo.com members price for 6 boxes from a local importer. ( i hope i got the right forum this time)
  13. well now I am looking at a t56, I have found an aust seller who will do a group buy of 6 for $3500 ea.
  14. should be able to buy one from ford or another seller and they should bolt up to the box the same as any other bell housing will for any other t56 / car option.
  15. The best box to buy is the dodge v10 viper t56 it has the higest rating of all t56's and you can get them from the states for around $2500aud Gear Ratio 1) 2.66 2) 1.82 3) 1.30 4) 1.0 5) .74 6) .50 Rev)2.9 Torque 525 lb ft Dodge SRT TRUCK WITH V10 VIPER ENGINE T-56 Transmission 6 SPEED.
  16. I have asked for a group price just found this as well from rocket Part Number: TM1386000012 This six-speed overdrive transmission was developed for adaptation to a wide range of vehicle requirements. Currently, the TREMEC T-56 is being used on the Dodge Viper, Chevy Corvette Z06, Ford SVT Mustang Cobra, Aston Martin DB7 Vantage and V12 Vanquish, and Expensive Daewoo Late model camira and Monaro. Features: * Center Distance - 85 mm * Double overdrive provides extended ratio coverage and allows for closer ratio steps * Aluminum die cast housings for reduced weight * Tapered roller bearings on main and countershafts reduce noise and improve durability * Needle bearing under all speed gears improve high speed performance and reduce shift effort * Advanced synchronizer technology * Powdered steel core blocker rings * Engineered friction materials for improved durability * Multiple cone synchronizer design for lower shift effort and increased capacity * Patented strut-type synchronizer design for improved durability * Constant mesh synchronized reverse * Internal, single-rail shift system * Integral clutch adaptor with front cover end-loading design for increased driveline bending strength and greater application adaptability * Multiple shift lever locations
  17. why buy from ford for $6000 NEW T56 Tremec 6 Speed ZF Gearbox Cost $4800. #A161C.
  18. So the manual gearbox is differant, the tailshaft is differant and the diff is differant!!! so wich diff do the turbo run, is it the m78 or m86 ???? what is the differance between the gear boxes except the ratios??? I was looking at replacing it with a 6 speed if it died
  19. doyou think I should use a factory xr8 one or stick with the normal bonnet?
  20. I have all ways wanted a ba/bf xr6t but having a new busness I wanted to use as much funds on the busness only but bthe want/need for a ba turbo just became to strong when I saw a white n/a xr6 5speed on e-bay. My first thought was buyit for $5500 do it up for a cost of $5000 to $6500 then sellit to buy a nother xr6t. The only problem was then I brought a genuine gt kit for $1060, had an offer on a turbo motor with 60000k's for $1750 from a friend at a wreckers (no harness or pcm) and now a few more special items later it has cost me around $12000 and I havent even seen the car yet. My problem is all the fkn hot xr6t's I keep reading about on this sight and e-bay for some cheep parts. So thanks to you all for the drive and insperation / idears and thank telstra for the free internet(they stuffed me around and gave me free hi speed broad band) so I can be on here allmost 24/7. Here is a pic of the car and a list of parts I am puting in to it. 2003 ba xr6 radiator=$140 new a/m. thermos $150. airbox=$70. bonnet lock=$25. grill $60. bonnet hinges $20 pair. both white guards$260. airbag kit $650 xr6t motor $1750 harness $125 prem icc $450 gt body kit $1060 BA-BF STARTAR BUTTON .INCLUED LOOM,SOCKET,REALY. $180 Ford Flash Tuner $510 8x 42LB INJECTORS $162 cobolt guages bost and oil pres $221 guage pod $ 138 k&n filter $89 fpv badge for skirt $60 BORGG FPGSS341 FUEL PUMP $116 What other performance parts do you recomend ???

    Edit.

    you can get a new flash tuner on ebay for $495. just plug in to yours and when you download your cars program it is then locked to your pcm, but then load up the setting you want and go. No taking an old unit to be wiped and programs re-installed at an extra cost!
