Factory Trans only has Carbon/Kevlar Blocking rings in 2nd gear, it ONLY holds 600ft/lbs/Tq at the wheels...Its been proven time after time what the stock units will hold under pressure. Stock TR6060 Units in all factory cars 88% of them have problems with high speed rpm shifting, especially from 1st to 2nd and 2nd to 3rd...

Eastcoast Performance-Corvettes units will not have any of these problems, plus we upgrade the oil pick-up tube inside the transmission from the larger pump in the front cover..Plus we modify all the leading edge sych 1st-4th and we install Carbon/Kevlar Blocking rings all the way through out the transmission...And we give you a 1 YEAR Warranty on a Performance Product...And best of all, All of our units start at holding at 800ft/lbs tq at the wheels and go up depending on what type of driving and racing you are doing..

Hope this clears up the little $700 charge guys..

Is there a way to purchase just the parts for a T56 to TR6060 conversion with ZR1 gearing so my shop can complete it? I know you wont be warrantying anything if you just send parts. I have a 2007 Z06 transmission. if you do diff upgrades too Id be interested in discussing that as well.

It would cost you more for the internal parts than to buy a new TR6060. TR6060 parts won't work in T56 casing.

Mike passed away couple of weeks ago and is no longer a vendor. Just a FYI.

What? Mike did a conversion for me and I was told that they would use my T56 case. He used Rockland for the conversion.

The front cover is TR6060 specific, the main case can be reused but must be modified to work. The tailshaft housing must be machined to accept square countershaft bearing. The main case and tailshaft housing can be reused but not without machine work.

I do have the latest TR6060 front cover and I don't know what they did internally but everything went back in and works perfectly. I can now see why it was $3,500 exchange.
