t56 magnum(tr-6060) has anyone got these to fit an ls1 f-body yet
Wanted to know if anybody has put one in there ls1 f-body and got it to work good, is there any changes needed to be made like different clutch or slave or bellhousing? Also can these be faceplated like a t-56? Would there be a need for a different length driveshaft that the stock t-56 has?

Nobody have any info on these transmissions at all, i already did a search before posting and saw where some were having trouble getting it to fit with the shifter.

The Magnum and the factory TR6060 are different externally. Which are you specifically asking about?
There's an old/long/on-going thread on the Magnum here:

Interesting swap article, seems to imply not much needs to be changed from the Magnum except shifter and driveshaft...

The 68 camaro article is a good one i did not know that the bellhousing had to be modified that's the exact one i have in my car right now. Also was not sure if the slave was the same and the clutch would work.
I was not sure how much of a difference externally the tr6060 was from the t56 magnum so i just put both up there but now i know its gonna have to be the magnum.

We offer a direct swap t56 magnum as well. Heres a thread we created a few months ago on the subject: https://ls1tech.com/forums/manual-tr...-body-gto.html
Your bellhousing, clutch, slave, driveshaft, shifter, crossmember, trans mount, and torque arm would all work with our converted unit. It also comes with new sensors and switches to plug up to your f-body or GTO. As sold from tremec, the t56 magnum doesn't have the correct backup light switch or speed sensor for your gm f-body or GTO. It also does not have the correct tooth count on the speedo reluctor from tremec but we change that to a custom 17 tooth reluctor so that no programming is necessary. It is truely a bolt in replacement.
