I dont see where you blokes are getting your figure's from, 5 digits for a swap?
Dellows in sydney Aus, sells a T5 kit around $2.5k all you need to find is a pedal box, or modify yours and a flywheel, all up 5k max. I bought the complete package box and all the bits for 2k, pedal box cost me another $350. I have a second motor I will build and set the whole thing up outside the car, then just transplant.

Our trans adapter is a 2x piece designed that is keyed & doweled for easy alignment & install.
We machined it from aluminum.
Jaguars are built CRAZY when it comes to fastening the engine to the transmission, so it gives you a bunch of mounting positions for the adapter & new Trans.
It requires some massaging of the Trans tunnel, but that can all be done with a rubber, nylon, dead blow or rawhide mallet.
The driveline is fairly cheap.
The key is finding what transmission you want (take into account of your vehicle factors, what you want in performance & how much youre willing to spend)

Its kind of hard to see in these pictures, but these are all I'm sharing right now.
Why do you have your heart set on a T56, also which one?
There are a ton of different T56's
