Alright so I have about 98% completed my t56 swap... It has taken me about 3 weeks to complete.. It was easier then I expected. But no walk in the park at all. My t56 came form an lt1 car. I took and swapped the input shaft to the 10 spline ford shaft out of the cobra's. I also change the mid-plate over to the LS1 style. Reasoning behind this is that the cobra shaft I would not have to buy a new clutch or pilot bearing. Also its the correct length. And the reason for the mid-plate change is because I wanted keep my hydraulic clutch. I did run it to a problem trying to reuse the ford slave cylinder. it was way to long and it would position the hydraulic fitting wrong. So to over come this I order the LS1 slave cylinder. its much shorter. But with that I had another problem. The line off the master cylinder is just a hire bigger and wont fit. So I order the one for the LS1. Now the LS1 line is a lil short so I had to take to my local hydraulic repair shop and have them lengthen it about 6inchs. then I had no problems..
Im sure there is things im leaving out but that was about the biggest problem I had. Everything else was just using some engineering to over come. Please feel free to ask questions.. Ill also try to get some pix loaded...
