I love my T56. compared to TKO ( any TKO ) the T56 is a really nice piece of hardware.

It may have a lower torque rating, 440LbFt for the FR T56 M-7003-H version, but a neat enjoyable *usable* gearbox.

Add a TRIAX shifter and it is aston martin slick.

If you plan to abuse the car then I can see a TKO600, but if you plan to drive the car. -- then a T56.

With the 4,5,6th gears I have several choices in most 40+ mph traffic conditions that match the situation perfectly. with the T56 I never feel like I am in the "wrong gear" for the situation.

Low speed --"Street-to-street" is beautifully handled in 2nd and 3rd , not to tall, not "panzer--tank"low --= just awesome.

Hope this helps.
