- Today we will be going over one of our manual 6 speed TR-6060 transmission rebuilds. This manual transmission is from a 2008 Chevrolet C6 Corvette Z06. This style TR-6060 transmission is correct for the 2008-2013 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 models. To start this build out, we first secure the transmission so it will not move while.
- The Tremec TR-6060six-speed manual transmission features six forward speeds and one reverse speed. It is derived from the Tremec T-566-speed manual transmission. As usual, the forward helical cut gears are synchronized however, the reverse gear operates through a fully synchronized constant-mesh system.

From Wikipedia the free encyclopedia
The TREMEC TR-6060 six-speed manual transmission is a high-performance oriented machine. Hence, why it's found in the Shelby GT500. The TR-6060 has short throws from the factory and utilizes a combination of double-cone and triple-cone synchronizers on all gears. My TR6060 is a '13-'14 GT500 TR6060. It has different gearing from the Magnum and the previous GT500 6060 transmissions. Mine will be: TR6060 13-'14 GT500 1st 2.66:1 2nd 1.82:1 3rd 1.30:1 4th 1.00:1 5th 0.77:1 6th 0.50:1 Currently I have a 3.31 backend with my MT-82. This is going to necessitate a gear change with the TR6060.
The Tremec TR-6060 six-speed manual transmission features six forward speeds and one reverse speed. It is derived from the Tremec T-56 6-speed manual transmission. As usual, the forward helical cut gears are synchronized however, the reverse gear operates through a fully synchronized constant-mesh system. The TR-6060 contains removable wear pads on the shift forks, and uses aluminum alloys for the main case, extension housing, and clutch housing. It is manufactured by TREMEC (formerly Transmission Technologies Corporation) and is rated for 600 lb⋅ft (810 N⋅m) of torque.
Changes from T56-six speed[edit]
The FG Falcon launch documentation describes the new gearbox: 'The new synchroniser package features triple synchromesh on first and second gears, and double synchromesh on all other gears, including reverse, which has significantly reduced gear shift efforts and shift travel.
The reduced shift travel provided by the synchroniser package has also allowed increased space for the use of larger gears, which are stronger to deliver improved torque capacity and gearbox durability. A new single-piece counter shaft also contributes to the greater torque capacity and durability enhancements.
Other features of the new TR-6060 transmission include:
- Reduced friction in the shifter system courtesy of a new cam and anti-friction plunger to control the side load shift detents.
- Forward and rearward shift detent grooves are broached on the front of the main-shaft with a spring-loaded anti-friction roller, for more precise control of shift detents and positive shift feel.
- Anti-friction ball struts, sintered hubs and fine-pitch splines on all synchronisers for reduced friction between components - delivering improved shift feel and reduced shift efforts.
- Wider, two piece gears with machined clutch teeth for more precise gear engagement and reduced potential for gear block-outs.'
Lubrication[edit]
General Motors uses Texaco ATF Type III 1863 fluid and is certified 'fill-for-life,' requiring no fluid changes.[1] Ford US lists a fill specification of 3.65 quarts of Mercon-V automatic transmission fluid. FCA Applications use Mopar ATF +4 Automatic Transmission Fluid.

Today we will be going over one of our manual 6 speed TR-6060 transmission rebuilds. This manual transmission is from a 2008 Chevrolet C6 Corvette Z06. This style TR-6060 transmission is correct for the 2008-2013 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 models.
To start this build out, we first secure the transmission so it will not move while we work on it. From here we start to remove the end cover as shown to get into the internals.
With the cover removed we can start taking the gears out one at a time. With those internals removed we can then removed the center housing and set it to the side.
With the center case removed, we can start tearing down the remaining internals. Once those are done we have finished the dismantling of the transmission and are now ready to start the rebuild.
Now with the rebuild of this transmission about to begin, you need to make sure you have your replacement parts ready to go. For our build we decided to replace all the syncros, both the input and counter shaft. We also replaced the front cover as well as the pump that is mounted to it. Do not forget as with any rebuild that gets done you should replace all the seals and with this one we even upgraded the blocker rings on this transmission.
As we stated in the last step, we ended up upgraded the blocker rings to a carbon blocker ring set. The picture shows the old style on the left and the new carbon ones on the right. We replaced both input and counter shaft due to the old ones showing signs of ware when we started the build.
At this point we start to install the first set of internals back onto the base plate. Its very important to make sure that each part gets installed in the correct order.
With this section of the internals installed the center case is then placed back onto the base plate and bolted back down. Everything should fit together just right if it was put back together correctly.
Now with the center section of the case snugged down, we can start installing the next set of internals. Again make sure that everything goes back in the correct order.
At this point the final thing to do is reinstall the last section of the housing. This then finishes the whole build from start to finish.
As always, feel free to email or call us with any questions at clevelandpap@yahoo.com and 866-236-5031.
