Hey guys my 69 Camaro has just got out of the paint shop and I'm finally ready for the Engine/Trans combo. I'm planning on a LS2 conversion. The engine is from SLP and is the new ZL402 stroker with the L92 heads and L76 intake package. Its rated at 560 ft lbs and hp at the flywheel. I read an article in Chevy High Performance (http://www.chevyhiperformance.com/techarticles/148_0405_tough_t56_transmission/index.html)about Rockland Standard Gear and how they beef up the T56 with better parts and improve upon 5th and 6th overdrive gears. Any thoughts on them or will a stock T56 work with the new engine output? The gears they offer are 2.97 2.06 1.43 1.00 .084 .056 OR 2.66 1.78 1.30 1.00 .074 .050. What would you guys recommend for a daily driver seeing lots of highway miles. The rearend is a Moser 12 bolt 3:73 gears and I'm running 18'' tires if this helps.
Thanks!!!
Thanks!!!
