Thoughts on a manual transmission..... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Setup:
1968 C10 SWB, Boosted 2006 LQ4 (650-700hp), AWD

Have a 2wd 4L80 with 80k miles on it, but the temptation to go manual 6 speed is overwhelming. Trading for a used T56 may be an option, but not sure if it can handle that power without being completely rebuilt and that's not truly an option right now.

This is a work in progress. So, thoughts and suggestions? And would 2800-3000 stall be satisfactory? Street and strip truck, not a racing setup.

Thanks.
