Description

Hunting junkyard cores and paying for questionable "Stage 6" rebuilds ends here. The TREMEC Magnum-F leverages proven TR-6060 architecture to deliver a brand-new, factory-quality 6-speed that bolts directly into 1998-2002 LS1-powered Camaros and Firebirds. Built from 100% new OEM-grade components, the Magnum-F eliminates the shrinking parts supply and reliability concerns that plague aging T56 transmissions while delivering substantially improved performance.

Inside, the Magnum-F features the same durable componentry found in today's hardest-hitting OEM muscle cars. Compared to the original T56, the Magnum-F boasts increased face width on all gears, a robust combination of double and triple cone synchronizers for smooth high-RPM shifts, enhanced webbing in the main case for rigidity, and provisions for a cooler circuit on demanding applications. The 4616 chromoly gears and one-piece countershaft handle 700 lb-ft of torque without breaking a sweat - no modifications required.

The Magnum-F's shifter location solves the fitment puzzle that has frustrated F-body and sport compact builders for years. Where the standard Magnum positions the shifter too far forward and the Magnum XL places it too far back, the Magnum-F's 29.4-inch location from the bellhousing face hits the factory-correct spot for fourth-gen F-bodies. This same position makes the Magnum-F ideal for third-gen F-bodies, LT1-powered fourth-gens, LS-swapped late models, and sport compact applications like A80 Supras and FD RX-7s that previously relied on factory F-body T56 units for their shifter placement.

The included isolator-type shifter - the same design found on the Magnum XL - reduces in-cabin noise and vibration while delivering the precise, communicative shift feel that defines the Magnum lineup. Installation requires a 31-spline slip yoke (replacing the factory 27-spline) and driveshaft length adjustment. The transmission accepts the factory 1998-2002 Camaro/Firebird internal slave cylinder for a straightforward hydraulic clutch setup. Fluid capacity is 4 quarts; TREMEC HP-MTF, Dexron III, or Mobil 1 ATF recommended.

Description

Stop crawling through junkyards for usable T-56 cores. The pool of quality F-body T-56 replacement parts has been shrinking for years, leaving fourth-gen Camaro and Firebird owners with limited options: hunt for salvage transmissions of questionable condition, or pay for over-hyped "Stage 6" rebuilds using inferior offshore components. The TREMEC Magnum-F eliminates both problems by delivering a brand-new, purpose-built 6-speed with 700 lb-ft of torque capacity and the F-body-specific shifter location that makes it a direct swap.

Built on the proven TR-6060/Magnum architecture found in today's factory muscle cars, the Magnum-F packs serious engineering advantages over the original T-56. All gears feature substantially increased face width, and the 4616 chromoly gears and shafts use two-piece laser-beam welded construction for superior control of tooth angles, pitch, and alignment. A robust combination of double and triple cone synchronizers delivers crisp engagement, while enhanced webbing in the main case adds strength. Provisions for an external cooler circuit handle the thermal demands of high-performance applications.

This wide-ratio variant (TUET17638) features a 2.97 first gear paired with ultra-tall 0.74 fifth and 0.50 sixth gear overdrives - perfect for pro-touring builds, highway cruisers, and street machines that need strong launch capability plus relaxed freeway RPM.

Description

Stop hunting through salvage yards for a worn-out T-56. The TREMEC Magnum-F delivers TR-6060 architecture in a purpose-built package for 1998-2002 Camaros and Firebirds, eliminating the need for questionable "Stage 6" or "Level X" rebuilds assembled with inferior offshore parts. This close-ratio variant (TUET16362) features a 2.66 first gear - ideal for high-performance street driving and road racing where tight ratio spacing keeps you in the powerband through every gear.

Inside, the Magnum-F shares componentry with today's hardest-hitting OEM muscle cars. Compared to the factory T-56, you get wider face-width on all gears, a robust combination of double and triple-cone synchronizers, enhanced webbing in the main case, and provisions for an external cooler circuit. The 4616 chromoly gears and shafts with a one-piece countershaft deliver the durability to back up the 700 lb-ft torque rating. TREMEC also upgraded to an isolator-type shifter - the same design found in the Magnum XL - which reduces in-cabin noise and vibration while delivering the precise, communicative shift feel the Magnum line is known for.

The Magnum-F's unique shifter location solves a longstanding fitment problem in the Magnum lineup. At 31.8 inches overall length, it's shorter than both the standard Magnum and the Magnum XL, placing the shifter exactly where the factory F-body console expects it. This makes it a direct swap for LS1-powered fourth-gen cars using the factory bellhousing, and it also fits third-generation F-bodies, LT1-powered fourth-gens, and sport compact applications like A80 Supras and FD RX-7s that previously relied on salvage F-body T-56 units for the correct shifter position.

Note: Requires changing the slip yoke to 31-spline from the stock 27-spline. Accepts factory internal slave cylinder from 1998-2002 F-body. The included isolator shifter will not accept 1993-2002 Camaro/Firebird shifter levers - for proper console fitment without modification, a 1993-2002 F-body style shifter is required.

Description

Extracting maximum performance from a high-torque LS engine requires a clutch that bridges the gap between aggressive track bite and civilized street manners. This dual-friction Superior clutch disc solves that challenge by pairing Kevlar on the flywheel side with a steel-backed organic facing on the pressure plate side. The result is a clutch that hooks hard under load yet remains smooth and predictable in stop-and-go traffic.

Why the hybrid configuration? Kevlar's coefficient of friction actually increases with temperature—meaning torque capacity goes up, not down, under hard use. It also resists burning and delivers exceptional longevity. Meanwhile, the steel-backed organic side provides the smooth modulation and forgiving engagement drivers expect on the street. This combination delivers more grip than a pure organic disc while maintaining better driveability than an all-Kevlar setup—the sweet spot for street performance and weekend track duty.

Every Superior clutch disc is hand-built in MDL's Caldwell, Idaho facility. Each disc goes through rigorous quality control—checked and double-checked for tolerances—before it ships. The 11" diaphragm pressure plate provides high clamping force without excessive pedal effort, and the sprung hub dampens engagement shock for chatter-free operation. Rated at 500 lb-ft, this kit is sized right for naturally aspirated and moderately boosted LS builds.

Fits GM LS engines paired with T56 or T56 Magnum transmissions using a 26-spline, 1-1/8" input shaft. Designed exclusively for hydraulic clutch actuation systems. Note: No throwout bearing or pilot bearing included—order separately based on your bellhousing and crankshaft configuration.

Description

High-performance LS builds demand clutch systems that can handle serious power while maintaining streetability. The MDL Superior 11" Kevlar clutch set delivers exactly that balance—rated at 550 lb-ft of torque capacity with dual Kevlar friction surfaces that actually increase grip under hard use rather than fading like organic compounds. When heat builds during aggressive driving, Kevlar's coefficient of friction rises, giving you more holding power precisely when you need it most.

Unlike organic materials that lose torque capacity at elevated temperatures and can burn when slipped excessively, Kevlar resists wear significantly better and won't sustain permanent heat damage under demanding conditions. The sprung hub design absorbs drivetrain shock loads, delivering smooth engagement without the chatter common to solid-hub racing clutches. This combination makes the Superior series ideal for vehicles that split time between spirited street driving and open track days.

The diaphragm-style pressure plate provides progressive pedal feel with clamping force that actually increases over the life of the clutch—delivering lower pedal effort than Long-style pressure plates while maintaining consistent performance.

The McLeod RST twin disc clutch delivers 800hp holding power in a street-friendly package--no harsh engagement, no leg-day pedal effort, no excuses. It's engineered for the enthusiast running serious power who still wants to daily-drive their build without fighting the clutch in traffic.

The twin organic friction discs provide the clamping force of a multi-disc setup while maintaining the smooth, progressive engagement characteristics you expect from a streetable clutch. Sprung hubs absorb driveline shock during aggressive launches, protecting the transmission input shaft while delivering precise pedal modulation. The diaphragm pressure plate maintains consistent clamp load across the RPM range with a lighter pedal feel than Borg & Beck designs.

McLeod's patented adapter ring system is the key to the RST's universal fitment. The large red adapter ring included with this kit bolts directly to large-diameter flywheels--Chevy 168-tooth, Ford 164T/176T/180T/184T, and BOP 160T/166T--eliminating the need for a dedicated flywheel. This covers GM V8 applications from '55-'85, Buick/Olds/Pontiac from '59-'79, and Ford 11"/11.5"/12" Long bolt patterns.

This clutch kit is designed for high-horsepower street use and is not intended for competition. For drag racing or sustained track use, step up to the RXT or RXT 1200 series. Pilot bushing and throwout bearing sold separately. Professional installation with proper flywheel resurfacing recommended. Backed by McLeod's 90-day limited warranty.

Description

Street-legal performance cars are making more power than ever, and if you're rowing your own gears past the 500 HP mark, you need a clutch that can handle the abuse without sacrificing daily driveability. The McLeod RXT Twin Disc Clutch Kit solves the classic high-horsepower dilemma - massive holding power without the harsh engagement and heavy pedal effort that make twin-disc setups miserable in traffic.

Rated at 1,000 HP, the RXT uses two ceramic-faced 9.687" friction discs mounted to a solid hub, distributing clamping loads across four friction surfaces for superior heat dissipation and consistent engagement under hard launches. The ceramic facings provide slightly aggressive engagement - enough bite to transfer serious torque without the on/off grabbiness that plagues race-only clutches. The diaphragm-style pressure plate delivers lighter-than-stock pedal effort, making this a genuinely streetable setup for stop-and-go driving.

This economical kit uses McLeod's patent-pending large diameter adapter ring system, allowing you to retain your existing large-diameter flywheel rather than purchasing a dedicated unit. The large red adapter ring fits common big-flywheel applications including Chevy 168T, Ford 164T/176T/180T/184T, Chrysler 143T/172T, and Buick/Olds/Pontiac 160T/166T configurations. The 26-spline, 1-1/8" input shaft configuration matches T56, TKX, and other performance transmissions.

Compatible with 1955-85 Chevy V8 engines equipped with large diameter flywheels. Note: McLeod street performance clutches require a 500-750 mile break-in period of stop-and-go city driving (1,200-1,500 clutch cycles) before wide-open-throttle use or dyno tuning. This kit does not include a pilot bearing or throwout bearing. Made in the USA.

Description

When you have pushed past 1,000 horsepower and still need to drive to the track, run hard, and drive home, the McLeod RXT 1200 delivers the holding power without the leg cramps. This twin-disc clutch handles up to 1,200 crank horsepower while maintaining a comfortable pedal feel that will not leave you massaging a charlie horse after a trip through downtown at rush hour.

The RXT 1200 features ceramic-lined clutch discs that provide slightly aggressive engagement with soft pedal effort. The higher clamp load compared to the standard RXT gives you the grip needed for serious power while the twin-disc design keeps rotating mass low for quick revs. The Blanchard-ground floater plate with multiple straps minimizes driveline noise - you may hear some feedback tones between 1200-1900 RPM, which is normal for twin-disc applications.

McLeod's patent-pending large red adapter ring system eliminates the need for a dedicated flywheel. The ring mounts to your existing large-diameter flat-style flywheel (Chevy 168T and similar) and provides the proper mounting surface for the twin-disc assembly. This adapter ring approach reduces cost while maintaining strength. Note: This kit requires a flat-style flywheel with a crank relief of 6.250" or less for proper fitment - it will not work with recessed or stepped flywheels.

Description

Factory roll pin hydraulic connections don't always cooperate when you're upgrading to high-performance braided clutch lines or performing a transmission swap. This 90-degree elbow fitting bridges that gap, converting a male roll pin port to a male -4AN connection so you can run modern steel braided hydraulic lines to your slave cylinder or master cylinder.

The 90-degree angle is the key here—it allows clean, low-profile routing in tight quarters where a straight fitting would kink the line or interfere with adjacent components. Whether you're tucking lines behind a bellhousing or routing around exhaust, this elbow keeps your hydraulic plumbing neat and functional.

Steel construction handles the hydraulic pressure demands of performance clutch systems without flex or fatigue, while the black finish provides corrosion resistance and a clean underhood appearance. The -4AN sizing delivers optimal flow for quick clutch engagement and release—an important consideration for performance driving where pedal feel and response matter.

This fitting is commonly used in applications like GM F-Body vehicles with TREMEC T56 transmissions, as well as any build where you need to adapt factory roll pin hydraulic components to aftermarket AN-style braided lines. Installation instructions are included to guide you through the process.

Description

OEM concentric slave cylinders in GM T56 applications are notorious for heat-related failures and inconsistent pedal feel under hard use. The MD-900-2505-A solves these problems with Tilton's race-proven 6000-Series hydraulic release bearing technology, packaged as a complete bolt-on kit for GM T56, Magnum, and Magnum XL six-speed transmissions.

The engineering starts with a billet aluminum body and piston, precision-machined at Tilton's California facility. Unlike plastic-bodied OEM units that distort under heat cycling, the all-metal construction maintains tight tolerances even in demanding conditions. The high-temperature mono-seal design incorporates a quad tensioner to maintain proper seal loading - critical for consistent hydraulic pressure and long service life. This constant-contact bearing self-adjusts as your clutch wears, eliminating the need for periodic adjustment and maintaining the same pedal feel throughout the clutch's lifespan.

• Bolt-on installation to GM T56, Magnum, and Super Magnum six-speed transmissions
• Designed for LS engine swaps and performance builds in hot rods, muscle cars, and street rods

Description

GM-style T56 and Magnum transmissions use a concentric slave cylinder to operate the clutch release mechanism -- the CSC combines the slave cylinder and throwout bearing into a single unit that mounts to the transmission input shaft bearing retainer. This OE-style hydraulic release bearing from MDL delivers reliable clutch actuation for your LS swap or performance build, featuring a GM quick disconnect fitting that makes high-pressure line routing straightforward.

The quick disconnect fitting snaps directly onto the CSC body for fast, leak-free connections to your hydraulic clutch line. A remote vent fitting routes the bleeder port outside the bellhousing, eliminating the messy and time-consuming process of bleeding the system from inside the bell. This design is ideal for aftermarket applications where bellhousing access is limited or where you need to service the hydraulics without pulling the transmission.

Fitment includes GM LS-pattern T56, T56 Magnum, and Super Magnum six-speed transmissions when installed in aftermarket hot rod, muscle car, or street rod applications. Note that the quick disconnect fitting does protrude from the bellhousing -- if clearance is an issue in your chassis, MDL also offers a low-clearance version (MD-900-2100-LC) with flexible braided lines instead of the quick disconnect.

What's Included

• OE-style hydraulic concentric slave cylinder with integrated throwout bearing

Description

Factory plastic hydraulic clutch lines are notorious failure points in TREMEC swaps and high-performance applications. Under heat and pressure, the OEM plastic hose expands and eventually fails--right when you need clutch actuation most. This MDL stainless steel braided line eliminates that weakness with a premium construction designed for serious drivetrain builds.

The 24-inch length with 1/4-inch ID provides flexibility for routing around exhaust components and headers while the stainless steel braided construction with Teflon inner lining delivers superior durability and heat resistance. The clear plastic coating protects the stainless braid from abrasion while providing a clean, professional appearance that lasts. Premium stainless steel crimp sleeves and stainless fittings ensure reliable connections that won't fail under high-heat racing conditions or extreme-duty street applications.

One end features a GM male quick disconnect fitting that connects directly to GM hydraulic release bearings and slave cylinders found on TREMEC applications. The other end terminates in a straight -4AN female fitting for connection to aftermarket master cylinders or additional hydraulic components. This conversion hose configuration makes it ideal for transmission swaps where you need to bridge OEM-style connections to AN-style plumbing.

Each line is pressure tested for quality assurance and manufactured to precise tolerances. Compatible with most internal and external slave cylinder setups. Proudly made in the USA.

Description

Hydraulic clutch systems demand leak-free, pressure-resistant fluid lines that won't degrade over time or expand under load. This 24-inch stainless steel braided line delivers the durability and consistent pedal feel that separates a professional hydraulic clutch installation from a compromise. The PTFE (Teflon) inner lining provides excellent chemical compatibility with all common hydraulic fluids while resisting the swelling and deterioration that plague standard rubber lines.

The stainless steel braided construction prevents expansion under pressure, maintaining a firm, responsive clutch pedal. Unlike rubber hoses that can balloon and soften pedal feel, stainless braided PTFE lines keep the inner diameter uniform for efficient fluid transfer. The clear plastic outer coating shields the braid from abrasion, contamination, and corrosion while letting you visually inspect line condition at a glance.

At 24 inches with a 1/4-inch I.D., this line is sized specifically for hydraulic clutch applications. It's an excellent choice when pairing a Tilton 6000 HRB with an -4AN male union to a firewall-mounted or bulkhead-mounted master cylinder. The straight -4AN female fittings on both ends connect directly to standard -4AN male adapters without additional fittings, reducing potential leak points and simplifying installation.

Every line is pressure tested before leaving the facility to verify seal integrity. Premium stainless steel crimp sleeves and fittings ensure a permanent, vibration-resistant connection. Proudly manufactured in the United States.

Description

Cheap shift knobs crack, fade, and spin loose. This Flame Series knob is built to handle real driving - the kind where you're banging through gears under load and your interior sees triple-digit heat cycles every summer. The specially formulated high-impact polymer resin was developed specifically for the automotive industry, engineered to resist stress cracking as it ages while standing up to the torque and temperature demands of performance shifting.

The bold flame graphics aren't printed or painted on top - they're embedded subsurface beneath the translucent blue finish. That means they physically cannot wear off, chip, or fade no matter how many miles you put on them. The 16mm x 1.50 brass master insert provides superior thread engagement and exceeds the auto industry's specification of 200 ft. lbs. static pull strength and 20 ft. lbs. twist torque resistance. This knob stays put.

Each 2-1/8" diameter knob is precision machined and polished to a high-gloss finish that catches light and complements any interior. At just 4 ounces, it adds visual impact without deadening shift feel. The included jam nut locks everything in place. Thread adapters are available separately if your shift lever uses a different thread pitch - just confirm your shifter's thread size when ordering so we can recommend the right adapter. Made in the USA by a manufacturer that's been shifting gears since 1952.

Key Features

• 16-pulse Hall effect sensor delivers 16,000 pulses-per-mile output for accurate electronic speedometer calibration
• Direct bolt-in fitment for Ford gear drive TKO and TKX transmissions
• Three-wire design with included 10-foot pigtail harness for flexible routing and clean signal transmission

• Uses standard T5 driven speedometer gears - no adapter required for low-profile installation.
• Compatible with Ford T-5, T-45, TR3550, 5-speed and 6-speed Ford T-56, and Magnum transmissions (requires Ford-driven speedometer gears and retainer clip)

Description

Swapping to a TKO or TKX five-speed means ditching the factory mechanical speedometer cable - but your electronic dash, engine management system, or cruise control still needs a reliable speed signal. This digital speedometer sensor plugs directly into the Ford-style VSS port on your TREMEC transmission's passenger-side tail housing and delivers a clean 16-pulse signal that works with the industry-standard 16,000 pulses-per-mile input most aftermarket speedometers and ECUs expect.

The three-wire Hall effect design provides a stable square wave output that won't degrade over long wire runs. The included 10-foot pigtail harness gives you plenty of length to route wiring cleanly through the tunnel and up to your dash or ECU, with a three-pin connector for easy hookup. The Allen-head mounting bolt is a thoughtful detail - standard hex-head fasteners can interfere with the sensor body in tight quarters, so this design ensures proper installation without clearance issues.

Beyond the TKO and TKX, this sensor also works with T-5z 5-speed and 6-speed Magnum transmissions when paired with Ford-driven speedometer gears and a retainer clip. Note that it does not fit Super Magnum, Magnum XL, or Magnum F transmissions - those use a different VSS configuration. If you're running a Dakota Digital, Classic Instruments, Auto Meter, or other programmable electronic speedometer, this sensor's 16,000 PPM output drops right into their standard calibration range.

What's Included

• 16-pulse digital speedometer sensor with three-pin connector
• 10-foot three-wire pigtail harness
• Allen-head mounting bolt

Key Features

• Factory-style 2-wire connector plugs directly into T56 reverse lockout solenoid
• Pre-wired pigtail eliminates custom splicing and unreliable field connections
• Compatible with TREMEC T56 6-speed transmissions
• Essential for wiring to aftermarket reverse lockout control modules, brake switches, or manual toggles

Description

The TREMEC T56 6-speed uses a reverse lockout solenoid to prevent accidental shifts into reverse while attempting to engage 5th gear--a real concern because reverse and 5th are positioned dangerously close in the shift gate. When swapping a T56 into a classic vehicle originally equipped with a T5, T45, or older 4/5-speed transmission, the factory electronics lack support for this solenoid, leaving builders without a clean way to wire the lockout system.

This pre-wired solenoid harness provides the electrical connection your reverse lockout needs. The factory-style connector snaps directly onto the solenoid mounted on the transmission case, eliminating the guesswork and potential wiring errors that come with spliced connections. The solenoid operates simply: when energized at low vehicle speeds, the lockout retracts to allow reverse engagement; de-energized at higher speeds, it mechanically blocks the shift gate from entering reverse.

Use this harness to connect the solenoid to an aftermarket reverse lockout control module (speed-based), a brake pedal switch circuit, or a manual dashboard toggle. The harness gives you the clean starting point you need for whatever activation method you choose--just run your control wiring to this pigtail and plug into the transmission.

Compatible with all TREMEC T56 6-speed transmissions. A simple, inexpensive component that prevents frustrating wiring headaches during your swap or build.

Description

Modern manual transmissions feature complex internal components -- multiple gear sets, clutch packs and narrow oil passageways -- that demand a steady supply of high-quality fluid to function properly. Without it, wear and sludge formation can lead to reduced performance and even catastrophic failure requiring thousands of dollars in repairs. This AMSOIL Synthetic Automatic Transmission Fluid delivers the Dexron III specification required by TREMEC transmissions while providing protection that exceeds conventional fluids.

In both normal and severe service, this synthetic ATF resists wear to the transmission's valve body, gears, clutch plates and synchronizers, helping your TREMEC achieve long service life. The thermally stable formulation guards against the harmful effects of thermal breakdown in elevated heat conditions, while resisting heat-related evaporation and viscosity loss to keep internal components clean and protected.

Formulated with friction modifiers that promote fast, smooth clutch engagement, this fluid delivers responsive shift feel and efficient torque transfer. It remains fluid in sub-zero temperatures, resisting thickening and flowing quickly for reliable shifts during cold starts. The excellent low-temperature fluidity also maximizes fuel efficiency. Seal conditioners help guard against leaks at input shaft seals and other critical points.

TREMEC TKX transmissions use Dexron III or Dexron III/Mercon specification ATF fluid, and Dexron III ATF is also recommended for T56 and TR3650 models. The T5, TKO and TKX five-speed transmissions require approximately 2.75 quarts, while six-speed Magnum transmissions require approximately 3.45 quarts. TREMEC recommends changing fluid after the initial 500-1000 mile break-in period, then every 30,000 miles thereafter.
