Bad trans maybe? I'd walk away, no Id run! LOL But now I'm intrigued as to what the guy is trying.

we’re light on weight. I know that some people invert Eaton Fuller 13s to 10 speed, but I’ve never heard of deleting them. I’m going to ask my truck mechanic.

My first Camaro I power-shifted into 2nd and ripped all the Dog Teeth off 2nd Gear, 510rwhp on Drag Radials does that, that's how. 
Rebuilt it with a Viper 2nd Gear and it was fine then.
Sounds like the car has issues so I'd steer clear unless you can build a T56 and want to get into it.

The guy is telling us what he experienced, you can ask questions tho. As good as you are projecting yourself here I'm surprised you haven't figured out what's wrong with that T56 yet.

Any of us that knows cars and given some of the slimeballs who sell them I'm leaning towards the T56 is tore up with them two gears he mentioned, and the guy didn't want that found out.
