Default tr-6060

has any body seen the new tr-6060. its going in the new pontiac g8 gt i guess its rated for 600lbft and its a 6speed. i wonder if this would be a stonger 6speed for truck swaps. i guess it is derived from the Tremec T-56.

yeah its rear wheel drive. i guess its going in the 2007 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 (remote mount shifter with dual braces and single linkage)
2008 Chevrolet Corvette
2008 Dodge Viper SRT-10
2008 Dodge Challenger
2008 Pontiac G8 GT
Retrieved from "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tremec_TR-6060_transmission"

but the g8 gt seemed like it had better gearing for our application. now to see what the GVW is for the trans.
