Ok guys... I'm going to a turbo 400 so that I can do some bracket racing this year with the camaro. So I have my very stout 6 speed setup for sale. I'm willing to strap this to a pallet and ship it wherever in the US. I have CHEAP freight shipping available. My guess is this whole setup on a pallet will cost between 80-150 to ship wherever...


Here is what is included...

FLP built t56 6 speed transmission previous owner was not real knowledgable about the build, but this was built when the guy from FLT worked at FLP. I know it has a steel 3/4 shift fork and believe it has billet keys, carbon fiber syncros, and possibly some other stuff. Regardless it has been flawless and strong since I have had it. I believe it has about 10,000 miles since the rebuild, I put 7000 of them on it. Does not grind going in any gear, and shifts very smooth.

B&M megashifter

Stock bellhousing

Upgraded 02 slave cylinder (replaced about 300 miles ago)

Remote clutch bleeder line...

Centerforce Dual Friction boost/nitrous clutch (has about 4000 miles on it, lots of life and very grabby with absolutely no problems. Broke the clutch in for 600 miles before beating on it at all).

All sensors shown

$1900 plus shipping... For what you are getting this is an outstanding deal. I have well over $2500 in all of it.
Spec Billet steel flywheel

Fbody 6 speed crossmember...

Clutch and flywheel have a few spots on them, however, it worked perfectly, the pads on the clutch surface seem to be wearing very evenly, and like I said, it grabs hard, and did not slip.

Will this bolt up to a 1972 SBC? I would be converting from an auto to an manual, other than clutch pedals AND modify driveshaft what would I need to make this work? Also would you be interested in a trade for a 2004R built to run 10s in the quarter?

no it will not. You need the lt1 style, and also a one piece rear main seal.



Back to the for sale post. It figures that I just got my 6 speed. But, if you decide to sell clutch and hydralics separte please let me know. I need those parts.

Very much interested in the entire package. Could you please quote me on shipping to ZIP CA 90723 (commercial address).

FYI; I live in the Netherlands but have a shipping address in So Cal. I assume you will accept Paypal?

Wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong. The tranny will bolt up fine with the McLeod adapter kit.

and how much is that kit.. it is not a direct bolt on with a ls1.. a lt1 T56 is.
