[QUOTE="snakeraper11b, post: 13369189, member: 128473"] The wider gear faces in the magnum make it the strongest manual trans for our car. Over 700rwhp and you start to overheat the teeth on the input cluster and they just get ripped off. Direct cluster oiling will take you up to about 800-850rwhp but it's not a forever thing, it'll just extend the life of the gears before they eventually fail. The Magnum is a stronger transmission as far as HP holding. It is good for around 800rwhp before cluster oiling is needed, then it's good for repeated 1,000rwhp romps. IMO It's weakness is the teeth on the synchros. They make those smaller, as well as the synchro ring itself to accommodate the wider, stronger gear set....Tremec says it's better, I went with a T56 because in my eyes, the beefier synchros will be more robust for high rpm shifts. The Viper shaft is a 30 spline piece, not 31. They're also only double cone synchros on 1-2, not 3-4 or 5-6, only single there, with otherwise stock internals. Not really sure how they charge 4k for one of those. It's good for only 550 ft lbs. and 6400 rpm shifts. [/QUOTE]
