LT1 T56 to LM7?
Hey guys
I had a 95 Camaro Z28 which was a donor car to my FC RX7. Things came up and we ended up trading that LT1 with an LM7. I believe the T56 from the LT1 would not be compatible with the LM7, is that correct?
I have seen LT1 to LS1 conversion kits, would that be the same as the LM7?
Thanks in advance and sorry for my noob-ness!

It will bolt up fine. The ls based engines have one less bellhousing bolt but it works fine you just need the right flywheel to make up the .400" difference between the two engines. There's the Sachs flywheel from oriellys for about 56$ or the McLeod 460535 for about 400$. Just make sure the flywheel matches.

Thank you guys for the info. I am aware of the differences between the two and have seen the conversion kit...just wanted to be sure that the lm7 is completely LS based and can be considered one.
I can do the work myself, and also the LSx t56's in my area are really overpriced. If all of that is not enough, I did drive my t56 and know that it's not bad.
I will try to find an LS one though...if anybody in the Bay Area hasone for sale or trade let me know.
Thanks again guys
