The driveline is outsourced. It usually takes 2-5 days.

Got mine from Liberty gear with their internal shift mods. Great product, delivered ontime! Bought the shifter from another vendor and had the driveline done at a local shop. Modded the stock crossmember myself.

I called American Powertrain for a quote on a T56 and bell housing, all the salesman wanted to do was sell me a bunch of other parts I already had, he said he would call me right back with a price, he never called back. I found the best price at Autoplicity, called Summit and they beat it. Had it in 3 days, done. American Powertrain called a month later wondering if I bought a trans yet? You'd think in this economy when you have someone standing there with cash in hand they'd roll out the red carpet.

Here's a tell tale sign. Last week at the Hot Rod and Restoration show in Indy, they had a booth and submitted a product for an innovation award. They won. At the awards ceremony when their name was called, you guessed it, no one was there to accept the award. I don't get it, they seemed like a good group. My friend that bought our other truck ordered a complete T56 Mag kit from them and got everything no problem and got it very quickly. Seems there is potential, but..........

I said it before and I'll say it again the place is a joke! The Jegs deal is the way to go if doing the off the shelf T-56 !! D&D is doing my nephews 67 GTO T-56 upgraded exactly like mine. I have this one going in my latest project. Taking the old Muncie out putting a off the shelf T-56 in. Jegs had it to me in a week. Helping a good friend of mine with a Nova after this one. Keep up the great service AP!!! Three transmissions since my ordeal! Ah don't worry I'm only one guy....

The most annoying dealer I have ever dealt with. I called once for a t56 quote and told them I'll think about it. They called me multiple times a week for 3 months lol. Kept getting my voicemail and leaving messages etc...

So you called for a quote ......and you were annoyed when they called back with an answer? ...multiple times? I would n't put this in a bad dealer pot...sounds like a poor-manererd customer pot to me. Call them and say no, if thats what you mean.
