differences b/w 93-97 T56 and 98+

so.....i know there is a tech article....but i dont know the guy that wrote it.

so i am verifying the info in here..

so i have a 98 T56....i can use the input shaft, bellhousing and case cover (with clutch fork pivot)(from a 93-97) and i will be able to use LT1 clutch and i can bolt it up to my 90 small block??

thanks...

Rick

edit.....i meant if i exchange those parts for 93-97...thanks

nooooooo, I hope you haven't attempted yet. The 98+ T56 transmissions will bolt up to the small block 350. The input shaft is totally different and I believe the bellhousing won't work either. I would recommend trading your T56 for a 94-97 T56 so that it will bolt on to yours. Please ask me if you have any more questions.

Its not worth tearing the tranmission apart to just change the input shaft unless you are gonna get the transmission rebuild anyway.
