Many engines can fit many gearboxes with the right bellhousing.

And T56 covers quite a few models of gearbox in various fitments with different ratios etc.

You'd probably have more success on a US forum as to whether bellhousings are available for your engine, and whichever model of T56 you might use.

So dont just randomly buy a T56 without proper research, as you could end up with something very difficult to use.
Fitment, ratios, shifter position, speedo drive, prop output etc will all need to be correct for you.
