Swapping T56 into a TBI car

Hi all,
Has anyone every stuck a t56 into a car with a regular TBI? My auto tranny is starting to slip and I found a real good deal on a t56 locally. I've got the one-piece rear seal TBI motor and I don't really feel like going thru an LT1 swap or a TPI conversion. Just want to make the car a little more fun to drive. Does anyone know if the flywheel will bolt up without any problems? TIA.

Alex

The 1993-97 T56 flywheel will bolt to your 1 piece rear seal TBI engine.

Any clutch pedal setup from 84 and up will fit. Even LT1 Fourth gens. LS1's may fit too. I got my set off of a 94 v6 camaro because all of the thirdgen sets are gone.
