i have cruise control in 5th but not in sixth. we need to ask allen or another big tuner if they can take the m6 portion of a f-body file and merge it with a truck file. then we would have what is needed to support cruise in 6th.

Does anybody happen to know where the NV3500 Shifter comes out of the case, through the floor pan, vs. Where the T56 comes out of the case at? Reason i ask is because i found a guy who can move the T56 shifter forward(torwards the engine) 4.5 inches, being the max... I assume that 4.5 inches, still wouldn't bring me forward enough to where my shifter currently comes through the floor pan? But it would be enough, to keep my cupholders, and center seat... If anyone just has the Shifter location, from the bellhousing, to where the shifter pops through the floor pan on the T56 that would work too, i can go measure mine. Thanks

Default RST brakes

after a good convo with booger. i found another point to bring up about the RST.
the brakes.

im not sure if all of the rst came with just the baer rotors or if they came with the calipers and different pads. but anyways, i went through 3 sets of wheels cuz the chrome kept pittin by the spokes. i even had a clear coat powder coat put on one and it didnt stop it. come to find out after the warranty was out the truck had stock semi-metallic pads on front and back. i quick swapped to ceramic and the wheels did not continue to pit any further. with one set of wheels the pittin started after 2-1/2 months. so be on the look out.
