T-56 didnt exist.
C5 uses a torque tube, and was designed by a different company for the Corvette. C4 uses a standard trans, and the ZF 6spd was the best at the time. At the time, the German ZF 6spd was in every super car from what I remember. For a 20k Camaro Z28 to use it, it was cool.

I dont understand how the T-5 couldnt handle the power of teh L98, but it sat behind the more powerful 305.
