6spd and programmers

I searched for a while now and never found any definitive answers so I guess i will add fuel to the fire on this one! Stock 6spd, other than eventually having to change the clutch out, can the tranny itself handle alot of engine mods? how much? any mods or lube changes need to be done? I know that the auto needs mods, but what about the 6spd? Thanks yall

Just make sure you buy enough clutch from Peter to start. BTW SB OFE 5 years and lots of abuse.

Over 125,000 since I saddled the horses with the TST and the other mods in my sig. Clutch life depends a lot how you drive. I am still on original. Will probably go Con OFE when the time comes but stocker still holding for now. I think the 5600 is popular with the pullers. Pretty strong tranny but you may have a little trouble with parts if you need them in the future. I run Pennzoil synchromesh and change about every 20-30k. Shifts like buttttttter.
