You are wanting to convert the T56 to work with an LS1? Or are you doing a complete motor swap? Need more info.

Depends on what you want to build and how much you know how to do.

LS T56 is easier to work with.

That's why you sell the LT1 T56 & get a LS T56..

But again..it depends on what exactly you want to build.
Example: a LS1 can be bought for $1k..my Engine cost about $8k to piece together..etc..
