Whats the matter with the one you have?

 

nothing just wanted to upgrade to the 6.7 with the exhaust brake.

 

I have a 6.7 with the G56 manual. It's an excellent transmission, nice and smooth. The shifter has a long throw, so you're not going to win any drag races with it. My only complaint is that it's geared a little too low, even with 3.73 gears in the differentials. Taller tires would help a little, or the Gear Vendors overdrive gizmo.

 

If the exhaust brake is all you want then Id putone on your 5.9. I would think you would come out ahead that way. The power is about the same for the two motors. 5.9 doesnt have the regen issues.
