The T56 was the trans behind the LS1, I dunno about the T5 unless that's what they put behind the V-6. In that case, I wouldn't recommend it, especially if your 6.0 is putting out decent power.

The T56 is marginal, I would never consider the T5.
what kinda trans would you suggest, id really like to keep it a manuel.
T5 wont work with the LS motors. yes the T56 works and its the same theory as getting the t56 to work with the LS1

it ain't that I'm too big to listen to the rumors, It's just that I'm too damn big to pay attention to 'em..That's the difference
T5 only good for 300 ft/lbs torque.
T56 would be good.
TKO 600 is good 5 speed trans. dont know if you can bolt to Gen-III though.
