ok guys, hoping someone here has done this before , and can help my with a parts list that I'll need. This is what I have......

I acquired a T-56 out of a LS1 01 Camaro. I currnetly have a 87 Monte Carlo SS w/ a ZZ4 GM performance 350 motor

I've heard that the bellhousing wont match up being that the tranny is from an LS1....Could I swap the bellhousing to one out of a LT1? Would the bolt pattern match up, is that the only problem with it?

Flywheel? any recomendations and sizes that will work for me.....Same with the Clutch

I have the Hydraulics that came with the transmission, anything else that I may need to swap?

Finally this isnt going to be a track car, although I wont be driving it like a 80 yr lady....it will get a work out from time to time, but I'm not planning on beating the crap out of it....

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.....thanxs in advance

As far as I know, the tranny will not work because the input shaft is also different.

Did you see the Sticky thread at the top of the page?

 

you have to change the front cover and input shaft or spend 500 bucks on a McLeod modular bellhousing. Sorry those are the only 2 options.

 

or option 3 use an adapter and pilot from mccloed and bolt it to your t5 housing.


If you dont have a t5 then just sell it and get an lt1 tranny. it would prolly be cheaper.
