I have the torque arm/crossmember for the t-56 swap from spohn. I reccomend it. Its well built, and while a little tricky to get installed it fits well. When you call just tell steve what engine and tranny you're putting into what car and he'll make sure you get the right part. Be prepared to wait for a couple weeks to a month, he is pretty backed up sometimes.

I too have the integrated torque arm/trans mount for the T56...excellent piece, and Spohn is really helpful...I have a couple of his suspension pieces, and I wouldn't buy from anyone other than him now!

I have that torque arm/crossmember peice. Never installed it yet though since I'm still waiting for my trans to come in. But from the looks of it it looks really good.

Where does the front crossmember of that arm bolt up?

It replaces your stock transmission crossmember, the T56 requires a different one anyway, so you get a 2 for 1 deal with his pkg, it moves the mount down from the side of the trans to the middle of the crossmember, I have the non tq arm xmem and its nice, soon i'll swap to the tq arm version.
