Tremec T-56 Magnum six speed core or print needed.

[Tim john---]

Good morning all, Does anyone have any recommendations or perhaps a Tremec T-56 Magnum empty case so I can mock it up in our car to alter the floor pans properly. An empty case, a foam 3-D unit, accurate plastic display or anything that would act as the real thing so I can do a real nice floor pan/ transmission tunnel modification. I have not purchased the transmission yet but that is what I plan on installing when the time comes. It would sure make life easier to have an accurate transmission template. I have talked w/ Tremec and told them a loaner w/ a core charge would be a nice selling point for mock up purposes but no such luck..yet. So my plea is for an empty T-56 Magnum case or a dummy/display case, damaged or otherwise as long as I can bolt it in position to layout my cuts. I would return it as soon as possible, pay a reasonable fee for outright ownership and then offer it right back up for sale after I finished up my floors/tunnel for the next guy. Can anyone help me out here OR if someone has an accurate drawing of the necessary modifications necessary for a Tremec T-56 Magnum six speed installation in a 1969 Firebird convertible. I am after a professional modification, not a gas axe or a sawzall finish so if someone has already scienced out what needs to be done please contact me for I could sure use your help. Thank You.

I've spoken with several people about a mock-up case. Tremec charges some ridiculous amount for a case. The other option is to pick up any T-56 case and bolt a Magnum tail-housing to it, but they are also stupid expensive from Tremec. I'm going to just go ahead and buy my transmission when the time comes (I guess).

The only other thing that comes to mind is this item from Speed Tech.

Aside from that, I'm not sure if anyone else makes a "pre-fabbed" tunnel modification solution.
