Strong T56 Buildup

I posted this question in the drivetrain section last night but have yet to geta response. So I thought I would try here. I want to build a bullet proof T56, and need to know what is available for them. I need this tranny to support lots of hp. As of now all I really know is to use a billet tranny yoke, and to use a good DS from Spohn, Denny's or someone like that (no aluminum). What else would you guys recommend ? Thanks!!

Isn't there an aftermarket fork available as well ? Who makes it and where can I get it ?

Gforce makes strong t56 parts. Kinda pricey though.

You may want to contact D&D performance. They can upgrade your output shaft to a Viper output shaft, Carbon Fibre Blocker Rings and Steel 3-4 Shift Fork.

i just ordered the g-force output shaft for mine, the viper upgrade is like 800 bucks, g-force shaft is like 450, they have one for like 670 or so, but they don't know if they are going to continue makeing it, only reason i went with the g-force shaft is because i have a good billet yolk for the tranny and didn't want to buy a new one for the viper shaft.... also get a steel 3-4 shift fork... And you may want to have the gears cryo treated, they freeze the parts to like 300 below zero, just my .02
