This guy said he does these all day long. He bought a load of them so he can sell them for cheep. Said if he doesn't have one, give him two days and he will. 700+300 core. Stock rebuilt T45.

This guy seems pretty straight up. Kinda folks I love to deal with. I was just lookin for a tranny myself as mine grinds going into third and has NO 5th. Tho, after a fluid change, I don't see the third grind much any more.

My experience with rebuilt trannies is a nightmare. My stock T45 lasted for about 200 passes on the dragstrip with nearly double the factory HP thrown at it. It was a great transmission, can't complain. I got it rebuilt locally with stock components, and it died after 20 passes. Then I went with a Promotion Powertrain rebuilt T45 that had upgraded components and was supposed to handle "700HP." That unit started whining, leaking ATF, and eventually died in 8 months. So I have become biased toward units built from factory. Now I have a stock T56 (only mod = 26 spline input shaft), and it's been handling everything I throw at it for the last two years. My humble recommendation is to find a used stock T45 or upgrade to a T56 rather than rebuilding the T45 -especially if you plan on adding power. Good luck!

I thought about that and wasn't to sure how I would like the six speed, I currently have 3.73's and didn't know how quick 1st to 2nd would be, it is already quick if I am rolling. Although I drove my buddy's vette ls2 with a 6 speed and liked it. Got a parts list to make it work ? I believe they use 11inch clutch mine is 10 1/2. Also what kind od trans fluid do you run? I've heard alot of different opinions

I have tried both in my t45 the gm syncromesh which shifted very nice and now I have regular atf dextron v and I hate it. Very notchy shifts. But also my trans has a lot of hard miles. Mabe a new one would respond different.
