Default Best place to buy a T-56 Magnum

I'm finally going to pull the trigger on a T-56 Magnum for my 66 Cutlass (455 Olds Engine). Where is the best place to purchase one?

I would use Hurst Driveline unless you can find a discount code for Summit Racing

That's a great idea. Now I just gotta figure out where 2 get a Summit discount code.

Often the discount codes will not work for items such as the T56 Magnum. I'd check around to see what the delta will be in total cost once it's all done so you make sure you don't end up paying the least amount for the tranny but end up getting nickle and dimed to death along with any support issues. Personally I'd stick with Hurst Driveline but that's just me.

I agree Bill. I just wanted to make sure there isn't a less expensive option I'm overlooking before pulling the trigger.

I know Hurst extends the warranty on the T-56 Mag by a year. In a street application, is that worth anything? I really have not heard of any issues with this trans---at least not that I've seen anywhere on here or pro-touring.com.
