I'm looking into a T56 swap into my Vega, been searching the forums and the googles but haven't quite found out what I need to know.
Found one for sale locally enough, it's from a 94-96 LT1 Camaro with the bellhousing, clutch and flywheel included. My plan is to use a hydraulic throwout bearing (already have a T5 in there now with this setup) for exhaust clearance reasons. The speedo, driveshaft and crossmember are easy fixes, I'm most concerned about the clutch.
So the question is has anyone used this setup and how did they do it? I'm hoping I can make it work with the LT1 input shaft and bellhousing, using my existing flywheel and a new clutch. I can machine a bellhousing spacer or just about any other part I night need, but I'd rather not have to drop a ton of cash on a bellhousing or an input shaft if I don't have to.
Any help is greatly appreciated. I'd rather buy the right parts later than the wrong ones now if I can help it
