Transmissions bolt to bellhousings, bellhousing bolt to motors/blocks..

The LT1-style T56 bellhousings will bolt directly to the '91 L98 and most any SBC/BBC.

as for computer you can do it yourself or paysome one to do it manual tune is slightly different then auto tune you can use auto tune if it doesnt bother you slight dirvability issues like cutting off at stop signs etc i doenst happen every time but small issues like that gets annoying ...but everything is straight forward keep in mind you have to add up all the little things you need as the tab will run up quick you will need atleast $1000 to do swap mainly depending on how cheap you can find a good t56 but its well worth it totally change how camaro drive you wont be disappointed
