MGW is working on a Magnum shifter?? **** YES!
There's been talk of one coming for a couple of years now. This is great news as the Magnum T-56 is becoming a more widely used transmission.

LMK please, I have money in hand for one.. and will gladly pay for it.
Several other reviews of the T-56 magnum said that the Tremec shifter is pretty good as-is. But I must say, the MGW shifter on my plain old T-56 is great compared to the stock shifter. And I called George in 2011 and he said that they might be coming our with one, but so far there had been VERY few requests.
Were you able to find a better than the usual price on the Magnum?
I am going to hope that Summit has a 15% off sale again this year, then I'll go ahead and order mine. I am really pissed at myself for not getting it two years ago when I found it for about $2300.00 delivered, no tax. But I had already spent way to much that year and just couldn't justify the expense.

I found this on the mgw website, even though they don't specifically say for Tremec magnum xl here is a preview of what their Tremec magnum shifter will look like. I wouldn't be surprised if this one works on the Tremec. Im currently awaiting a call from George at mgw to see if this is the case! My Tremec gets installed next tuesday!

How much different could it be from the old model?
I've got the old orange model and I can't see how they could change it to be any better?
I went to that link and there is nothing there referencing the T-56 Magnum, just the regular T-56. :shrug:
They don't make a shifter for the magnum t-56 at all, so it's going to be new. The shifter on those is different than the regular t-56. I think it's 6 bolts instead of 4 among other differences :beer:
Yes, you are correct. It is larger and has 6 bolts. To compare the regular T-56 and the Magnum T-56, CLICK HERE and check the photos of my shifter gasket for each. Compare Items CB-1P and CB-14P. Night and day different.
On your gasket page the tko is closer to what the magnum is then the t-56! Do those gaskets match up?
