I am about to order a 6 speed gearbox kit from Keisler USA. Anyone dealt with them or tried thier kits? I am looking at the Perfect Kit 6 speed which inludes box, tailshaft, cross member, bellhousing, mount, hydralic clutch set up ( not clutch plate) and wiring for US$4,395
No mods needed to the floor for 1st Gen. Will handle 650HP :eek:
With 2 overdrives I was thinking of running a 3.7 diff
What do reckon- way to go :)

Is it just a T56? I gather it is...... I run 700HP+ through one on slicks no worries man they are tough as !

BTW it may be cheaper to source all the parts seperately? Dont know for sure though.....

Is T56 a TKO 600 ?? This kit is TKO600> I probably could try and source bits seperate, but this way its one shipping cost and everything is guaranteed to fit

tko 600 is the 5 speed model. 600 being the hp it can handle (or was it the Torque?)

but the T56 is the "true" 6 speed.

Thanks Muggz, must be the T56. Also waiting on a price from CMG whose kit also includes the Clutch and flywheel but no bellhousing.

What Muggz said.... TKO 600 is a 5 speed!
T56 is a 6 speed same as LS1 commodore/GTO/camaro etc

Finally ordered the CMG kit. Elite T56 6 speed kit. Upgraded to the 525 HP McLeod clutch. Got the tailshaft set up for the Ford 9inch.
