T-56's have midplates that can interchange between transmissions.
The Magnum T-56 is actually offered by Tremec. There are other companies that sell them, including me. They are offered in a Ford version, only for modular engines at this point I believe.
You can also upgrade a Viper T-56 (they're a higher spec T-56) and these transmissions will hold 700-750 lb-ft with just a few minor upgrades.
The clutches are nothing special, you just use a 1-1/8x26 clutch like a TKO 600.
I have a Viper spec T-56 here that I can modify and send out for use with a SBF. It would not be new, but would be rebuilt.

Hi Steve,
The 1386-012 is discontinued from everything I've gotten from Tremec. Ford still has some stock but it is very limited from what Ford Racing told me when I checked stock.
The T-56 Magnum is available with better gear ratios and Quick Time has a bellhousing to bolt it behind numerous engine combos.
I'm developing another external slave kit for the T-56 Magnum on the bench right now. Just a few weeks from being available.

Hi RuneS,
There are 2 versions. The T-56 Magnum & matching bellhousing will cost about $3200.00. How are you going to actuate the clutch? Cable or hydraulic??

Mike-- How deep is the QT bellhousing >?
Have you looked at the willwood pull cylinder -- it sure is a problem solver!
you can use a diaphragm clutch with a passenger side pivot ball and a stock pull type fork.
should speed up R&D time!

Hey Everyone. Is there anyone out there that's put a T56 in a original style frame? Got photos? Michael

Michael ,
A T56 in an original style from would require a modified tunnel.
