Hey Guys,
Trying to get a T56 Magnum with the same gear ratios as the stock tranny (2.66 first gear etc.). So I did some searching on this forum and got some info then started making calls. Getting conflicting info so now I'm confused, are there variations of this T56 Magnum out there?
From the threads I read here on SVTP I need to shorten the driveshaft 1" and change the yolk on the end of the driveshaft as the T56 Magnum has a different output shaft spline. Also I'm able to reuse the stock T56 bell housing I have now.
When I called Ford Racing to confirm part # (M7003M6266) before placing order they told me it will not work with the stock T56 bell housing and I need to get the quicktime bell housing part # 8080. They also said there's no need to change the yolk on the driveshaft as both the stock T56 and the Magnum have 31 spline output shaft. Simply shorten the driveshaft.
So is this the right transmission? which info is correct?
Thanks guys
Malcolm
