How much different is the shifter location? enough to require mods to the interior to get it to fit? Glad to hear it drives nicer. Not a fan of how "rugged" and unrefined feeling the stock T56 is. My only hold off on the Magnum as been the $3k price tag.
Does the viper spec T56 drive any different? or do you have to get the Magnum to get the improved driveability?
Humm no drive shaft or shifter mods? clutch fork? You sure you didn't have the viper spec? Just reading up above a couple posts it looks like the Magnum has quite a few differences.
The shifter location only requires you to "massage" the back portion of the factory cut out where the shifter comes through. Its not a huge deal. I also lined the back of the shifter with foam pad to prevent metal to metal contact with the trans tunnel. Nothing else to the car was modified and the interior is just like it was...
Theres no way a true T56 Magnum will go in without a modified driveshaft, and modified 03-04 clutch fork.
