I was thinking about having some upgrades done to my trany soon, has anyone used the guys from T56rebuilds.com?

Also what do you guys think about swaping out 6th gear for a higher gear ratio? Something like what the C5 z06's came w/. I think it's .56. or even the .50 that the coupe came w/.

My 02 z06 w/ all bolt ons, big cam intake full exhaust put down 483 rwhp and like 416 rwtq got an average of 18-20 mpg in the city depending on how nice I drove it and around 26-28 on the hwy. I know they're more aero dynamic, and a lot lighter, but I'm sure the gearing had something to do w/ it.

Bunch of fellas have exchanged their Terminator T56 5th and 6th gears for Dodge Viper 5th and 6th. But, the job will run you about $500 in parts, plus labor.
