At 600lb-ft of tire-melting torque capacity and up to 8000rpm Shifts, there is not much this TKX can’t handle.

T56 Magnum Double Overdrive Six-Speed

The centerpiece of TREMEC’s high performance line-up, the Magnum 6-speed takes the state-of-the-art OEM technology and pairs it with the most popular flexibility features of the all-business T56 Magnum.
The result is a double-overdrive transmission that easily tolerates up to 700 lb-ft. of torque, delivers unbelievable sophistication, and that is far more flexible than any other 6-speed in the market.
Known in its OE form as the TR-6060, the Magnum is an aftermarket variant of the same transmission found in many of today’s most revered factory muscle cars; meaning refinement where you want it and strength where it counts!

Due to its brute strength, the Magnum is the largest Tremec transmission in the lineup.
Being much larger than the stock four-speed, the tunnel needs to be enlarged.
MDL offers up a form-fitting fiberglass tunnel panel that is glassed into the body.

Available Gear Ratios

2.66, 1.78, 1.30, 1.00, 0.80, 0.63 OR .74, .50
2.97, 2.10, 1.46, 1.00, 0.80, 0.63 OR .74, .50

All backed by the industry-best 2-year warranty from MDL with an additional 1-year grace period.
