I have a 6-spd T56 transmission out of a wrecked 1990's Dodge Viper. Tranny, bellhousing, TO bearing, shifter, and some sensors. Heavy duty, yo. Got it in a trade back in 1999. Gawd I'm getting old. Anyway... sick of looking at it in the garage, so I am thinking about selling it or rebuilding/refreshing it and then selling it. The thing is I don't know shit about it and don't know what it's worth. I would like to have somebody who knows these beasts to look at it and give me an assessment and/or a rebuild/refresh quote. Your input would be appreciated.

Words cannot describe how beastly this transmission is! I wish I had a WRX trans. to take a comparison pic of the two.


Mmmm... beast... beast...

You can put those in basically everything American, V8 (or larger) and RWD other than Corvettes right?

One of the RenoSCCA members, Bonnie, races a Viper. You might post over there for some ideas.

Yes, if the bellhousing is changed to match the engine. Vettes C1 thru C4 too.

Looks like it's worth at least $400-$500. Would be a lot more if it I had some way to verify how well it shifts and all.

Now it is true that is Sylvester's catch phrase, but I assure you that "Daffy also says "Sufferin' succotash!" from time to time":

Who's the n00b? I was watching Daffy Duck (as well as Sylvester) say "Suffering Succotash" back in the 1960's, mmmkay?
