How to: Convert LT1 T56 to LS1 T56

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Converting a LT1 T56 to work on a LS1 application is a good way to get a budget T56. I ordered the Rockland Standard gear conversion kit and am working my way through the conversion process.
I'm just a shade tree hobbyist so don't take my methods for gospel. If you have any insight for better methods, please let me know!

    thermal heat and freezing is the most undertaught tricks. probably only needed heat but good to see it worked. Thinking of doing same swap

    I’ve searched everywhere and can’t find the part numbers for the input shaft bearing and the race that goes under it. The tremec PDF files only list the name of the part and the number associated. Could you look back at your order and let me know? Thanks

    Has the transmission been used with the .003 endplay? If so how many miles with it functioning correctly? I'm trying to do the same thing shim a t56 amp plate.

    This isn’t necessarily about the swap, but can you tell me what shifter you used? I’m not sure what to buy.

    When I bought the LT1 T56, it came with a Hawks short throw shifter. It was nice enough for me to use. I don't have experience with any other shifters (even stock), but the consensus on LS1tech seems to be MGW is the go to.

    It was $500, plus a $100 core that you get back when you send in the LT1 input shaft and mid plate.
