Hi,

The New T-56 Magnum is physically the same size as the early production T-56. It is MUCH more adaptable than early T-56. With multiple shifter locations, optional gear ratios, electronic or mechanical speedo, and bellhousings available to fit most common engines and adapters to fit odd combos too. This T-56 Magnum is what we have been waiting for years to be made.

As for 4.88 gears I don't go along with that. You have a choice of the .62 or .50 6th gear. This is actually a nicer gear spead than any T-56 to date except the Aston Martin which shares the same 5th & 6th gear.

As one of the 10 ELITE Tremec distributors, I have touched and seen these along with factory training about the benefits. Hell, I was asked how I would like to see it made....

In 1993 Mike made the first conversion of a Ford Tremec to GM 5-speed. It bolts to stock bellhousings w/out an adapter. The FE Tremec, the Mustang adjustable quadrant are originals from Mike.
