Engineered to facilitate installing a Tremec T56 Magnum transmission into a 1970-1974 Dodge/Plymouth Mopar E Body car when doing a Gen3 Hemi swap. Requires additional fabrication and welding.
Made from 3/16 thick steel, this replaces the factory transmission cross-member transmission mount. Provides the additional height and width required to for the Transmission. Additional clearance may be required including cutting the factory crossmember for the transmission tail-shaft and the speedometer or VSS cable/sensor. The factory floor requires substantial modification and use of the USCT Transmission Tunnel Perimeter Frame is recommened. The tab is designed to accept the common GM 2 bolt style mount transmission insulator. The USCT cross-member is a fully boxed section, engineered to provide the structural integrity that would be lost by removing the factory cross-member. The kit includes the cross-member, Grade 8 mounting hardware and instructions for installation. The GM style insulator (#10473052) is not included and is available in almost every auto parts store. The components are factory jig welded, ready for installation. Requires fabrication and welding to install the transmission, the USCT T56 crossmember is a bolt-i.
Auto Metal Direct is a team of true car guys with years of experience in sheet metal reproduction, car restoration and paint/body work. We believe that quality is not subjective! Our mission is to provide the best customer experience for the Ford, Mopar and GM classic car markets - both in products and in service.
Our panels are made from proper gauge steel and include all correct-as-original clips, tabs, flanges, bends and seams. Each time a prototype body panel comes off of a new tooling, we test fit it on a car. The marked up prototype is then used to change and improve the tools, and a new prototype is produced. This procedure might be repeated multiple times but, once the part is finally approved, you can be assured of a quality part.
