How much horse power can the stock drive train and rear end handle? Along with other componets as well???

i remember hearing the rear diff will hold north of 600. that's the only definite numbers i remember.

some of the tuners are adding blowers & stuff is holding up thus far

At least 552bhp ... Hennessey.

The M6 is a 6060 tranny which is in the Z06 so at least 600rwhp....so have fun.

I thought people were worried about the rear end than the tranny?

Gentry78 · 05-26-2009, 11:39 PM

i remember someone saying i think it was spike but don't quote me on that, of the rear end can handle 600 hp but i don't think it was clarified if that was rwhp or bhp

There was an ad from Tremec saying that the 6060 can handle 700 lbs of Torque. According to Wikipedia it handles 600 lbs of torque.

Your no good. I know it is not reliable, but the 700lbs of Torque I saw in a Tremec Ad should be pretty accurate. The Tremec websitedoes not even list the 6060.......go figure.

yea tranny is more than capable!! i wouldnt push to further past 550rwhp on stock bottom and honestly would upgrade clutch once over 450rwhp. but it really depends on how you drive the car. if its street only and running from rolls you can get away with more versus someone who goes to track a few times a week and runs hard launches everytime

SSCamaro2010 · 05-27-2009, 08:30 AM

what about rear end?
