Will it work?

I was looking at doing an engine swap in my 91 camaro. It currently has a t-5 transmission and i was wondering if i would be able to bolt it up to 93 lt1 engine. Also if i need to buy any parts to make it work.Thanks for the help

You can, you'll need to put your '92 flywheel on the LT1, so you can use your clutch and pressure plate. The '93 LT1 used a larger flywheel, with a different pressure plate pattern for the "pull-off" clutch. But it's a straightforward swap.

Would it work if he used an LT1 flywheel and LT1 pressure plate w/ the T5 from the '92?
