T5 to T56 Swap
I have an 89 Camaro with a T5 transmission and I bought a T56 out of a 95 Camaro. I figured out everything except the starter and the hydraulics for the clutch. If anybody can help me with these please let me know. Thank you

Re: T5 to T56 Swap
You will need to replace your hydraulics with the 4th gen one.
Not sure about the starter.

Re: T5 to T56 Swap
I did take all the hydraulics from the 4th gen I got the tranny from. But will they bolt right in or will I have to modify them at all?

Re: T5 to T56 Swap
Bolt in mostly, you will have to modify the eye on the master rod for the pedal stud.

Re: T5 to T56 Swap
There's a sticky thread at the top of this forum. It's a long read, but most any question you might run into has been asked and answered already.. Give it a few reads and pop back in if there's something still unclear.
