Where did you find many threads NOT related to sbc ?
Virtually all of the threads here are referring to normal SBC, unless its on an LS1, and then you usually arent hearing any asking.

Re: t56 in a 350 sbc?
all the sbcs are the same pattern on the back. Whether they're a 305 or 350 or variations. So whatever thread you find will work. The only major thing you need to watch for is whether your motor has a 2 piece or one piece RMS. if 1 piece, can use stock flywheels for the application, if 2 piece then you are in need of a $$$$$$ flywheel.

As for the sticky posted by Vetteoz, it is very informative and most everything is answered in the first four pages. I have read it several times myself.
