T-56 Swap
 

I don't have a car a the moment but i am planning on buying a third gen, and dropping in a built 383 in. I know that the T5 wont hold up for very long, and i was wondering if anybody knows some places where you can buy the things to do the swap. Thanx

swap meet.lol

many junk yards have them

Yeah idk i heard there are some places where you can get the complete trans to drop right in (shifter, crossmember, etc.) ill find something

haven't seen anything myself, but to buy a kit will be expensive and doing the crossmember is extremely easy all the parts would be on a junkyard car

alfight that's prolly what ill do, thanks

Here is a tech page T-56 swap

and here is a F-body site that has all kinds of parts for the swap. they have the motor mounts and engine mounts for LS1-LT1 and T-56.

F-body parts

Thanks camarocam thats good info
Anybody ever used or heard of Billy Graham's Camaro/firebid salvage

nope, i showed them and it was new to them, but like eveyrone thought, they dont have much listed or much info.gonna have to call them up and ask prolly

Good luck on it keep updated I want to do it to my 84 but I am only 17 with a part-time job!!

haha, yeah im only 16, i found a place where i can bould up a t5 into a bad *** tranny. it makes it clutch asisted, so when shifting you only need to let of the gas and slam the gear, no clutch needed. it can handle 600 hp, where the T-56 can only hold like 450, and its cheaper and easier. i'll find the link

Thats cool post the link I would like to take a look

its www.g-forcetransmissions.com

That was me that posted the link, i was just at niceroc's house

ok, maybe he was logged in at my house, but anyways that was my post of the link
