Questions & Answers

Do you think this will work with a sbc chevy pilot and a tko 600 spline?

There is one bearing that is common to all Chevrolet pilot bearings. The TKO will be great if it has 26 splines.

When using a ls1 with a t56 magnum, is it best to align the monster clutches? Can you tell me how many teeth the tool has? Thanks. ?

You will have no problems with this. Using this tool is the only option you should consider. They are made of plastic and are a waste of money! The clutch was used on one of my Ls7s with a stock ls7 clutch.

When it comes to shaft diameter, how big is it? How much is 1 and a eighth inches?

My buddy is a runner so I bought this for him. He has a quartermaster as a cutch. According to the site, it is an 1/32" x 26 spline. I hope this is helpful.

When it comes to the pilot diameter, how big is that?

There are 590 inches in this video.

It is a lot easier to install a T56 this way
5/5

There were several difficulties I encountered when installing my T56 magnum - something that might have seemed simple on other transmissions was much more difficult. As I struggled to get the input shaft into the pilot bushing, I spent hours trying to get it to slide in. A buddy to help and a precision metal alignment tool were the two pieces of advice I got. My frustration with this tool ended after a second frustrating hour. Upon receiving this alignment tool, I tried to install it as soon as I opened It was when trying to install this tool after using the plastic alignment tool that I realized the plastic tool had failed and was the cause of my frustrations. I was able to make this work by taking the pressure plate off and alignment it with this RAM alignment tool. When comparing it to the plastic alignment tool, it held the clutch disk firmly and centered on its own, whereas the first time it would slide It took me just a few minutes to install the T56 by myself once the tool was used. To align the dowel pins, I rocked and rotated the transmission lightly as I pushed it forward. Once the dowel pins were aligned, I added the bolts, but only finger-tight. In the next step, I pushed the transmission into the bell housing and finger tightened the bolts until the transmission was flush with If you have precision tools like this it may not be necessary to call in a friend to assist you with an install, but if you do not have the clutch disk lined up it will not slide in no matter how many people assist you.

It's the best tool I've ever used
5/5

In my opinion, this tool is one of the best purchases I have ever made. As I was using a cheap plastic alignment tool provided with the clutch, I struggled to install my Tremec clutch. The first time I used it, everything lined up perfectly. Purchase this product and you will not regret it. This was also a cheaper alternative than trying to find a used input shaft, which was the other best alternative to.

The quality and fit of this item are excellent
5/5

The fit is excellent! I used a tilton 1250 lb and it worked great. The clutch is composed of two discs. With the plastic tool that came with the clutch, I wasn't able to get the strength or accuracy I I would like to thank this tool for its great performance. The price is high, but it's worth it.

Don't let frustration get the better of you
5/5

T56 Magnum was installed using this tool. All alignments are perfect, including the clutch and pilot bearing. The clutch alignment was not an issue during the install. This is an excellent book!.

All the best
5/5

An instrument. Nothing at all! All the best. . An instrument. Nothing at all! Plastic tool made from cheap materials did not Because there is too much slack in it, I was unable to line up the tranny input shaft. The tool has much better tolerances than the one I used previously. I reinstalled the clutch and pressure plate on the transmission, and it was easy to install.

The TKX GM is compatible with the Tremec TKX
5/5

For alignment of the clutch pack, clutch flywheel and pressure plate, this is an essential tool.

The plastic tools are redundant when this one can do the job
5/5

The tool is very good. Excellent results can be achieved by machining high quality parts.

The plastic version isn't as good as this
5/5

The plastic alignment tools don't fit as well as the one from this site. This is a very good tolerance.
