socorob Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 (edited) Apparently this is old news, but I just found out about it. You add 2 copper oil drain plug washers under the shifter detent bolt, and it makes the T56 shift much better. Anyone here done this? https://www.svtperformance.com/threads/want-smoother-shifts-try-this.686622/page-13 Edited July 7 by socorob 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
socorob Posted July 9 Author Share Posted July 9 (edited) I did this last night. It made a difference in the shifting, much smoother and easier. I didn't read the amazon listing, so the new packs of the Dorman 65277 only have 1 20mm washer, not 2, so I ran to the Honda dealership and got a Honda 94109-20000 washer. The Dorman is thinner and copper, the Honda is thicker and aluminum. They are both crush washers. I would say it made it 30-40% easier and smoother to shift. Cost about $10 and once my car was in the air took about 30 minutes because my cat was right in the way, so I had to drop the front of my exhaust to get my hand in there. I have V bands, so it was easy to do. The Corvette and Mustang crowd call it the anti venom mod. Edited July 9 by socorob 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
