    Boomer, I believe we are going to have a pre-production unit on hand, but we will not be doing any teardowns on site.

    TREMEC T56 Magnum S197 Transmission

    It's my great pleasure bigray, really. I'm a long time Mustanger myself ('94 GT w/ Magnum 6-speed), so I can appreciate everyone's position. And to anwser your question, no, there is no specific release date available at this time. The aftermarket team was really hoping to have it around this...

    TREMEC T56 Magnum S197 Transmission

    r.barn, you can't quote me on the info I'm about to give (it's one of the main reasons manufacturers rarely speak on forums), but I'll tell you what I know... First, keep in mind that I am not an engineer, nor could I offer specifics on TREMEC's behalf even if I had them. That said, the main...

    TREMEC T56 Magnum S197 Transmission

    Not a stupid question at all. And actually you'll be pleased to know that, yes, there is a way to do the conversion. You would need the S197 Magnum mainshaft, extension housing, shift rail, shifter, and a few other small bits and pieces. Completing the conversion would require a full teardown...

    TREMEC T56 Magnum S197 Transmission

    I'm glad that those of you who have already made the switch to a TR-6060 are happy with the results. The 6060 from the Shelby is indeed a good piece, and we wouldn't dream of giving anybody who couldn't wait a hard time given how long it's taken to bring the Magnum to market. That said, if you...
