I have a pic somewhere i think, but no, i can't recall ever counting the teeth. I can say it's the larget pinion gear i've ever seen and offsets the CW over a mile

Here you go...probably not much help?

Justen, not to sidetrack Alex's thread too much, but do you recall if the dim's of the Tremec were similar to the R154 or V160, and if the shifter came out in approximately the same place fore/aft?

 

[JustenGT8]

It's taller than both but a little shorter. ....about the same width. Shifter is way more forward. Pretty sure there are some side by side images I googled

I've done a little bit research a few month ago, and if I'm right, the T56 Magnum shifter position should be approximately in the same place as the R154. But the overall length is a lot more.


What I found on YouTube is very interesting.. Check out this mod on a T56, which you can copy for any transmission which have the same problem when hard accelerate .

Check this out...

Alex, FWIW, many of the GT40 guys rig up these pumps on their Porsche G50 trannies to keep them alive when they're behind 500HP Ford motors.

On the Ferrari side, these pumps, along with Setrab coolers are stock on most of the cars since the mid-90's.
