Shifter base for Tremec Magnum aftermarket - tail mount
Shifter base for custom conversions:
- Only fits Tremec Magnum 6 speed (aftermarket TR6060, successor to T56):
- Tremec #s including TUET7477, TUET7478, TUET7484, TUET 8272, TUET8274, TUET8275, TUET8277, TUET11009, TUET11010, TUET11011, TUET11012, TUET16884, TUET16885
- GM Performance # 19352208 / 19329795 / 19301620 ("T56 Super Magnum")
- Ford # M-7003-M6266 & M-7003-M6295
- Does NOT FIT any OE T56 or TR6060 - see separate listings
- Does NOT FIT Magnum "F" (4-bolt base)
- Replace the Tremec-supplied base with a higher fulcrum to reduce throw
- Tremec's fulcrum height is only going to be "short throw" with a 5" stick; follow the list below for substantial improvement with taller sticks!
- Also improves 2-3 shift w/ lateral bias springs that boost neutral centering
- Mounts at tail location on a rectangular 6-bolt pattern that is ~ 3.56" wide x 6.75" long; stub pivot ball center is ~1.2" below the flange
- Forward port relocation kit also available - see separate listing
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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| OE Tremec | 5" | 3.5 | vertical | |
| A | 8" | 3.1 | vertical | default |
| B | 10" | 3.6 | vertical | +$10 |
| C | 10"+ | 4.6 | vertical | +$20 |
| D | 12"+ | 5.4 | angled 14 deg left | +$30 |
| E | 13"+ | 4.3 | angled 14 deg left | +$40 |
| F | 14"+ | 4.5 | angled 14 deg left | +$40 |
| G | 6" | 3.5 | angled 11 deg left | +$10 |
| H | 5" | 3.0 | vertical | +$10 |
- 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
