I've done several swaps with an auto trans but this will be my first with a manual, I've read a lot of posts about manuals but because I’m new to manual trans I'm still a little confused. Here is my specific question, I have a LQ4 from a 03 Yukon and I've found a local guy that has a T56 out of a C5 corvette, he’s asking $800 for it. Will this T56 fit the LQ4 and is $800 a good price? It is supposed to have 85K miles on it.

Thanks for the help.

No the c5 trans mounts in the rear so that trans snt made to bolt directly to the motor. You need a t56 from a fiebird/camaro/gto. the c5 trans can be converted to that style but its expensive.

what car is it going into? other configurations might fit but the standard fbody/gto trans is pretty universal

$800 is a fair price for a T56 with 85k miles on it. But, as redbird said, converting it to work with your motor wouldn't make financial sense.

Don't forget to remove the 0.400" spacer on the crankshaft before bolting up the correct T56.
