turbo 350 and 94 lt1? will the convertor bolt up?
i found a rebuilt th350 short tail with convertor for a screamin deal, will it bolt to my 94 lt1 or do i have to do something to make it work?

The transmission will bolt right up but you will have a few snags. You will need a th350 converter. The 4L60E converter won't work. You will need a custom crossmember and you will need a new driveshaft made. I run a th350, but mine was a 9" tail that is the same length as a 4L60E so I didn't need to get a new driveshaft and I bought a fitz-all adapter kit to mate the 4L60 tailcone piece to the th350 so my stock crossmember would work.

You will still need a new driveshaft and a new crossmember. I'm not sure if BMR makes a crossmember for short tail th350's or not. They do make crossmembers with integrated torque arm mounts in them.
