    I am not overly familiar with the T-56 but I have a ZF-6 in my 34. I believe the ZF-6's shifter is located farther back than the T-56. So if if worked for me I am pretty sure yours will work for you.

    As long as you are willing to notch your seat for the shifter...I did have to notch the front inside corner of the driver's seat so the shifter would have clearance.

    And I personally like the nostalia look a a four speed so we bent a Hurst 4-Speed shifter and a Borgeson steering coupler to the shifter and then had the transmission shifter machined on the shaft to fit the coupler. Now the shifter simply slides onto the machined shifter shaft and everyone thinks the car has a 4-speed.

    Let me know if you need more help.
