T56 swap pedal question
T56 swap pedal question
I have done a search and have not really had my question answered so here it is. I am going to start collecting the parts I need to convert my 84 T/A automatic to a T56 setup. the motor is a 010 block, the car right now is auto. which pedals should I get??? I know of a car that I could get the clutch pedals out of (95 I think, Camaro) I also know where I could get a set of 3rd gen pedals. what should I get??? also does anyone know of the location of the hole in the floor for a T56 ?? do I put that in the same location as I would for a t-5 setup???

Either set of pedals will work fine. I bought pedals from a fourth gen car, the only thing i had to do was cut off the gas pedal and open up the top bolt holes a little, was very simple. For the shifter hole, the hole will be exactly the same spot, but moved back 2 inches toward the back of the car

I used pedals from a 3rd gen with the T56 slave and had to shorten the T56 actuator rod about an inch. Easy to do.

I used a 3rd gen set of pedals for my car. The spot where the clutch pedal was supposed to be mounted was dimpled and was easy to drill out. I went on the tech article section and they told me exactly where the hole shold be cut, actually it has all of this info in it. I bought my cross member from Skulte Performance Designs. The T-56 tranny came from D&D Performance, its a GM/Viper Retro Fit. It has an adapter plate on the front of the tranny to allow me to use a mechanical clutch or a hydraulic style. It didn't force me to use the pesky 4th (94-97) set up.
