just wondering about how much a running lt1 would cost/go for? im in need of just a t-56 and i seen them priced at about 1500-1800. im looking at running 94 camaro and wondering if it would be worth buying just to get the trans i want.
I bought my lt1 with accessories computer and harness all for 800 bucks, i have seen t-56's go for 1200 bucks complete with everything you need for a swap.
no i dont have the money to drop on the car. le tme rephrase i have the money but it cant stay spent lol. i wanted to buy the car hopefully around maybe 2800 and sell the engine and everything out of the car so i could gte my trans for cheap.
I see complete T56's all the time for 800 bucks on different boards.

The wheels are 9.5 x 18's all around. Front tires are 265/40/18 and backs are 275/40/18. No rubbing. Front spacers are 1.7's. (i have LS1 brakes). Backs are 2".

Well first of all it's best to have these conversations in PMs. But 2" spacers all around would work for you.

he said conversion i know that with parts from a 4th gen you wont need spacers and it will be safer if the adapters do break. i just dont know exactly what id need
as far as conversions i only know of people swapping in 4th gen rears and then wouldnt need the adapters on the rear. dont know of anythign for the front except the spacers.
i just got some spacers and i dont see them as breaking easily at all.
