Description

Transform your 1968-1972 Chevy Nova into a modern six-speed powerhouse with this complete TREMEC T56 Magnum package engineered specifically for LS engine swaps. The T56 Magnum isn't just an upgraded T56 - it's an aftermarket version of the TR-6060, the same transmission found in factory Dodge Challengers, Vipers, and Chevrolet Camaros. That OEM supercar DNA delivers 700 lb-ft of torque capacity while maintaining crisp, precise shifts that make every gear change a confidence-inspiring event.

The engineering advantages over earlier T56 designs are substantial: increased face-width on all gears, two-piece laser-beam welded gear construction for superior tooth angle and pitch control, robust double and triple-cone synchronizer combinations, enhanced main case webbing, and provisions for a cooler circuit. The upgraded isolator-type shifter reduces in-cabin noise and vibrations while delivering the communicative shift feel that defines the Magnum platform. At just 135 lbs dry, the Magnum combines serious strength with surprisingly low rotating mass - critical for builds where every pound matters.

This package delivers everything required for installation in your '68-'72 Nova: TREMEC transmission, LS-specific bellhousing with block plate, complete clutch assembly, hydraulic release system, application-specific crossmember, transmission mount, speedometer adapters, drive shaft yoke, wiring harness, and comprehensive hardware. Choose between wide-ratio gearing for street-focused builds that prioritize off-the-line punch and highway cruising, or close-ratio for track applications where keeping the engine in its powerband through tight gear spacing is paramount. Both configurations feature double overdrive for relaxed highway RPMs.

Precision-engineered for 1968-1972 Chevy Nova applications running LS engines. All components are sourced from leading manufacturers and backed by MDL's lifetime technical support.
