Honestly, I was hoping to spend about $2000 on a built tranny. if i get more high quotes I will consider doing a T56 swap as much as I really dont want to do all that extra labor.

That's the tranny i got about 5 years ago.....i beat the living shit out of it and it's still ticking..

the only other guy that i would say has the same parts as bowtie overdrives would be CK.. and im pretty sure CK will charge you around the same..

In my opinion...CK and bowtie overdrives are better than FB trannies..

Dennis... go to CK transmissions and tell him you are from this website and you know me.. see what price he gives you..

:iagree:

I like CK. That's where I'm going to get the Stage II tranny. AND their transmissions are rated for higher power levels at the same price OR LOWER. The Stage II tranny I'm looking at has pretty much the same specs as the FB big block tranny and costs $1700. You may want to check them out.
Currently looking for a 91-92 Z28, TTA or GN

450 hp is borderline for my engine. It should work but it would worry me a little bit.
I have always considered putting a T56 in my car. But I think an automatic would be fine also.
