A T-96 is marginal behind the 199 and 232 sixes unless you're really 
gentle so my guess is that a souped up 196 will cause it to do one of 
two things: 1) Something internal will just snap and at most you'll get 
a little clunk. 2) The gears will jamb up when something breaks and 
there's enough torque to cause tranny gears to go flying through the 
side. Sounds like a neat video to make.
