Shifter base for Tremec Magnum aftermarket - forward shift conversion
Core Shifters forward shift conversion kit for AFTERMARKET Tremec Magnum 6 speed:
- (TUET11009, TUET11010, TUET11011, TUET11012, TUET16884, TUET16885)
- GM Performance # 19352208 / 19329795 / 19301620 ("T56 Super Magnum")
- Ford # M-7003-M6266 & M-7003-M6295
- Kit includes shifter base for forward location & 6-bolt cover plate for tail location
- Drop-in, direct fit for Magnum in situations where tail base is too far rearward
- Does NOT FIT other T56 or TR6060 models - see separate listings
- IF your tail base does not have a 6-bolt mount, do not buy this - see other listings
- Only fits at forward location; see separate listings for tail bases
- Mounts on a rectangular 4-bolt pattern that is ~ 2.88" wide x 3.65" long; stub pivot ball center is ~1.5" below the flange
A Hurst stick is required (NOT included, sold separately). Other brands and homemade sticks are discouraged. Stick mount has 3/8"-24 threaded holes spaced 7/8" apart on center + mating serrations for a Hurst stick on one face. Due to larger mounting threads (3/8"-24), sticks that use 8mm mounting bolts (most OE, "non-TKO" Lokar, others) will not work. Lokar TKO sticks can be mounted but only to the smooth side of the stub. To select the proper parts:
- Wait until new transmission is installed to buy shifter parts
- Remove existing shifter base if present
- Sit in vehicle, in driving position, with all interior trim (dash, console, etc) in place
- Define desired knob location in space (neutral position):
- Measure height from base flange to desired knob location = overall height
- Measure side & rear offsets from receptacle bore to desired knob location
- See this diagram for clarification
- Study the Hurst stick page for shapes that meet your needs
- Allow 3-6" for stick mount height
- Choose a stick and see what fulcrum heights are compatible with it (see chart)
- Check overall height (see chart: stick height + mount height = overall height)
- Confirm chosen combination achieves desired knob location and that fulcrum height works with stick length selected
- Consider various stick & stub combinations to optimize
- Note long sticks on angled mounts will strongly offset knob to left (can be 5-6"+)
- Options E & F require a Hurst stick directly mounted on side w/ serrations
Stub fulcrum height options (critical to optimizing leverage for short throw):
Option | For stick length | stick mount height | stick mount angle | upcharge |
---|---|---|---|---|
A | 8" | 2.8 | vertical | default |
B | 10" | 3.3 | vertical | +$10 |
C | 10"+ | 4.3 | vertical | +$20 |
D | 12"+ | 5.1 | angled 14 deg left | +$30 |
E | 13"+ | 4.0 | angled 14 deg left | +$40 |
F | 14"+ | 4.2 | angled 14 deg left | +$40 |
I | 6" | 3.3 | vertical | +$80 |
- Stick length = point-to-point distance from mount hole to knob thread
- Stick mount height = distance from base flange to stick bolt hole (affects knob height)
- Fulcrum height = distance from lower ball to fulcrum pin; varies by option, not published
- Warning: Follow stick length guide to avoid excess effort & component failure
