Shifter Options? What is everyone using with their T56 Transmission?
I have the opportunity to purchase a 6-spd tranny out of a '05 GTO for $700.00 bucks. I'm looking to utilize this in my '69 I'm tired of shifting gears with my original 4-spd trans. But i'm not to sure whats all needed to make this work. I'm also concerned with the shifter length and location I have buddy buckets in my truck and the original shifter comes pretty close to the center seat. Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I am planning on a T-56 for my truck...but I dont know what shifter will work. We already know a car shifter isnt going to work. It would be too short. I guess a shifter would have to be fabbed up I guess.

Hey Sierra I'm interested too, but nobody answered my posts about the T-56 either. Call the people at Keisler Engineering or Kugel Components for more info. They set me straight on a few things, but I still don't klnow what I'm going to do about a shifter.
