not really. its a rachet square head. i think its a 3/8" drive.

Forgot about the 3650's but in the t56 you can use syncromesh i use RP stuff.

You shuld see the plug no problem but worse case if you wana yank the shifter off you could fill through there as well [Wink]

Im running RP and I have an 03 gt with spec 2 clutch and flywheel, and I still notice the diff. running RP, smoother and firmer shifts..!

I would use what the manufacturer specifies. I called Tremec and asked what to use in my 3550 and they said nothing but Syncromesh. Dunno about the 3650 though.
