Hope this helps

Which version of the T-56 are they doing R&D on? Or are they doing a complete transmission? I think i may be a bit confused here... so please be patient, it is hard for me to visualize things without actually seeing them.
Viper, Mustang, Camaro, all use T56 transmissions. Are the only external physical differences the tail housing length (shifter position) and bellhousing bolt pattern?
My main concern is the positioning of the crossmember and mounting points within the floorpan. Since the crossmember doesn't mount to the tail housing, do i need to know the tailhousing length to do this? I realize that i will need to know it in order to cut the shifter hole. Do all T56 casings (minus the tail housing) have the same physical dimentions and crosmember mount locations?
I guess at the end of the day the question i am trying to get answered is this: If i want to install a weld in style crossmember simular to what DSE has, how can i make sure that it gets put into the right spot without going out and buying a new transmission?
