T-56 Swap Questions... ::Sigh:: Did a Search..
Ok.. Has anyone swapped a t-56 into a 305 TPI?? The reason why I ask is because I was just talking to a friend of mine and he was telling me that since I got the flywheel from a 94 F-body with a 350 it won't work. He was telling me it will vibrate the whole car and eat up my crank bearings.. You guys have any advice??

Their the same thing... AFAIK anyways...
Now if it was off a 400 thats a whole different ballgame (external balance...)

Yes it will work fine.
305 and 350 flywheels and flex plates are all the same, for any given year.
So this is assuming of course, that the 305 is 86-up. If the 305 is 85 or older you'll need a "conversion" flywheel.

Yea, the only difference that i knew of was the 1 piece RMS and the 2 piece RMS. That requires extra tidbits to interchange them but in no way vibrate the he|| out of your car.
