LT1 (460 hp), LT4 (650 HP) and the new LT5 (755 hp). These engines are available with either the 8L90E or T56 Super Magnum transmissions.
T56 SUPER MAGNUM - 6-SPEED MANUAL
The Tremec 6-speed manual transmission is an after-market version of the TR-6060 that can be found in many of todays most popular muscle cars from the Challenger to the Camaro. The Tremec Magnum is the go-to for most professional car builders and road-racers. With the ability to withstand 700 Lb-Ft of torque and short shift patterns, this is super-car tech, for the ultimate pro-touring build.
6L80E 6-SPEED AUTOMATIC
For use on the LS and LSX crate engine, the 6L80E is a great choice for most pro-touring rides. Featuring a high 4.02:1 first gear, the 6L80E provides strong launch performance, while a 0.67 6th gear provides for optimal highway use. Supporting up to 650 lb-ft of torque, this transmission is built tough.
