How's the shifter placement on the T56? I heard the 6060 is great since it's more adjustable.

the magnum is 5-6 inches too short, I'm currently waiting on a custom relocation shifter to be made. I could not find a 6060 for a decent price so I picked up this new one, and I liked that it uses a slip yoke

Nice setup, what custom subframe is that?

V8 Roadsters mounting kit, their fit and finish is great

Nice, I have always heard they make great stuff.

Can't remember hearing anything bad about V8R. Their stuff isn't cheap, but you get what you pay for, it seems.

I've met the son father duo before. Great guys, my father picked up one of their V8R spec cars for HPDE. They take care of their customers and know their stuff. The father's got some incredible build stories like setting up a few jets for Dale Earnhardt back in the day.

Also, this is the cleanest install I've ever seen. Keep it up!

After many weeks of waiting I finally got this work of art :)

Custom relocation shifter by Sikky, I am truly amazed how well this piece is made

haven't really looked into it yet, is someone making a bolt/weld in application?

lsrx8 03-06-2016 08:39 PM

Shifter placement is spot on, throws are nice and tight :djcelebra

V8R makes bolt in stuff for Getrag and Ford 8.8 I believe.

Wow!!! That looks awesome.

That is so gorgeous.

Anyone need a T56?
I need a TR6060 and that shifter!
