Wait, 500nm is only 370 lb ft of torque. That has to be a misprint.

That's the "off the shelf" rating. I think it was Hameedi that stated that the 3160 was significantly modified to withstand the demands of the 5.2L.

Here's an article, (it's validity unknown), that states the units in GT350's will hold a 425lb rating.

ATS uses the 3160, what's it's rated at? If it's higher maybe that'll give us an idea of what this trans can really be made to do.


The article also has these as the ratios for the GT350
First: 3.253:1
Second: 2:233:1
Third: 1.611:1
Fourth: 1.24:3
Fifth 1:1
Sixth: .629:1
Reverse: 2.955:1

274 ft-lbs for the V6, 295 ft-lbs for the turbo4. The ATS-V will use the TR6060

I'd have figured most would be happy that the Getrag didn't get used in this application.
