Which T56 do i have???
i bought a supposed 98 T56 recently and now i need to know which one i have.....a 93-97, 98+, or retrofit tremec.

now.....it seems like it is the Tremec because Tremec is stampedon it several times

is there a part number i can put on here so someone can tell me what it is? or can someone refer to a place i can look it up

thanks so much

rick

That doesn't seem to be a aftermarket part #. Any chance we could get a pic or two?

That slave cylinder housing doesn't even resemble the fork unit on '93-97 T56's, and the lower bolt on the bellhousing is in a place where a Gen I-II smallblock doesn't have holes. Looks like you got a Gen III '98+ T56.

If your next question is "Will it bolt up to my 350" the answer is no.

The 98+ trans will only bolt up to 98+ engines since GM changed the bolt pattern for the bellhousing.

Sure, and you'll also need to swap the input shaft as the LS1 part is not compatible with Gen1-2 engines.

sell that one and save yourself a lot of time and headaches. it would be much easier and cheaper to just buy a 93-97 t-56 rather than trying to change the input shaft. i dont think the bellhousings interchange either.

If you are not interested in selling me your trans. I might be willing to sell you mine. It has all the parts to convert an ls1 t56 to an lt1 t56. Plus a star stage 2 clutch, a b&m ripper shifter, pedals ect.
