I put a T56 in my car. It is a HUGE transmission in physical size and it is heavy. Looking back, I would have been much better off with a TKO 600. I got the T56 at such a good deal, it was hard to pass up at the time.

The only time I use 6th is on the highway cruising at 70 MPH or above. You cannot use it for anything less than that. The RPM's even with 3.70 gears are just too low unless you have EFI and other additions to make your car drivable at very low RPM's. I use 5th gear most of the time at 70 MPH or less on the highway.
