I went with RPM transmissions because I could get a few tweaks and mods that were not available at the time from others (or at least I could not find anyone else) such as machined bronze fork pads, machined bronze shifter bushing, upgraded carbon blocking rings 1st-4th gears as well as micro-polishing, etc.
Not sure if these are items you are interested in, but it may be and it's nice to get the trans-in-a-box to be ready to bolt in.

Thanks. You are correct that is a point to think about. Liberty has a good rep (from what I've read) for their Tremec mods. They offer several upgrades to the T56 also. That is another problem in itself and something I should have also asked at the start of this thread.
Is there any need to modify your T56 for track duty or do they shift well enough in stock form?
I think a fully prepped T56 from liberty gets close to $3500. I'm not in some delusional state I will build my car on the cheap but I do have a budget. My thought right now is put a stock T56 in for the shakedown of the car and if it has shortcomings then I will address it.
