The Tremec TKX is approximately the same length as a Camaro T5 and offers a shifter position similar to that of the S10 T5. It does vary from the T5 in the "girth" department. Not available with a tail shaft housing that can be converted to closed-drive like the Jeep T5. It is also expensive.

It has been discussed previously, too. https://www.fordbarn.com/forum/showthread.php?t=290186
