Tremec or fab new adapter for m45?

I’ve got a 2JZ-GE vvti, and I’m doing an NA-T build, to put out 750 to the wheels. Are there any good transmissions that can pair to the 2j and handle the power, as well as fit in the 240 with minimum modification? I was also looking at the tx5, and was wondering if either the tx5 or the t56 would fit well in the 244. Obvously the third option is to just rebuild the m45 and put in custom fabbed new components, but that’s a last resort because of my lack or experience with it.
 
Rebuild a volvo M45 manual trans for 750hp? No those only hold about 200...
Shit I had no idea. Is there any trans that would fit nicely in the tunnel? A tkx has a good form factor, but I’m afraid I’m gonna have to hammer out the whole trans tunnel

Probably not much hammering to do. But a tkx isn’t going to live a super long life at those power levels either.

Tremec recommends 600ftlbs max… so you’d be cutting that really close
 
Would a t56 magnum be able to handle the power reliably? I know it would take some hammering tho…
 

Here is this, dont know if that kit is being made still.

edit: actually they are using the 2j, no kit is needed, just put the 2j trans in a 240
