These are recently updated versions of Tremec T-56's used on late model Vette's, and are quite large. These require some large floor carving and shifter work to fit into a C3, but some guys in the C3 tech/performance section have done it. Maybe good idea posting your intentions there.

I had the install on my C2. Frame cutting was required, offset shifter required, driveshaft cut down to fit new transmission. All in all it wasnt that complicated but I didnt do it myself.

​ do you mind sharing what offset shifter you used and how did it ever work out?
