Default MGW told me about a part to make their shifter work with my GTO T56?

As stated... I have a T56 from a GTO in a swap and I bought a MGW shifter for an Fbody camaro. They told me there's a link on here somewhere for the partthat makes their shifter work for the GTO t56 since they dont make an actual GTO shifter. I can't find that link. I was also told Tremec sells it under part # 1386-598-016 but the Tremec website says it will not work with a GTO T56 so now I'm just confused... Any help guys??

You need to change the shifter cup, you need the shorter one, they interchange by removing a roll pin.

Thats what I was thinking and thats the part number I listed but Tremec says it wont work with a GTO for some reason. But we know it does. Why would Tremec state that?

They say that because in a GTO with a GTO shifter it won't work. They are talking about the car not the trans itself.
