This should be the only Tremec Magnum transmission (Magnum-F) anybody with a first generation Camaro should be considering when swapping to a T56 nowadays.
When purchasing a new unit from Bowler or Jody's , why the Magnum-F over just the Magnum?

Does the Magnum F use a different speed sensor than the regular Magnum? The regular Magnum uses a Ford sensor, wondering if the "F" uses a GM one that matches the pulse output count as a regular GM T56.
Thanks

EDIT: That would require a different target wheel on the output shaft too wouldn't it?

The Magnum F style is supposed to be a duplicate offering for the '99-02 style T56. The main difference is the 31 spline yoke needed. I like this transmission better as the 4 bolt shifter offerings are much better than the standard Magnum T56 6 bolt style shifter. The F style comes with a pretty nice billet shifter... but most opt to install an MGW shifter etc instead.
