Default T56 & 351w

Would appreciate hearing from anyone with a T56 behind a 351/393 Windsor.

Seems to me that this transmission solves the two problems which seems to exist with the 3550/TKO11 having a very low first gear and/or an unusable overdrive.

Which model T56 fits the 351W bolt pattern?. TCC advise the 1386-000-012 transmission is the one to use, whereas an aussie supplier has recommended a TUET 1260.

Both the above transmissions use a 10 spline input which reduced it's torque down to 400 lb.ft.

Anyone adapted a 26 spline T56 onto a Windsor?
Which is the correct model T56 to use?
Where is the starter mount? right or left side of the car?

Would appreciate comments/recommendations from anyone using this box and what your thoughts are. What diff ratio etc etc.

Thanks in advance
cheers
