Default T56 Swap question???

Ok, im buiding a 92 Sonoma GT and plan to put the new L92 motor in it after i stroke it and some other work, and well i was going to do a 4L80E trans, but i have really been thinking about doing a T56 instead, as the truck will be more of a street/driver than an all out drag racer.

My questioj is about the clutch, and for my particular swap, since im going to have a gen IV engine, which is the better way to go on the clutch setup?

Should i get a complete LS1 clutch/bellhousing/trans setup to go with the LSx engine, or would i be better off uising an LT1 style clutch setup, as its much closer in design to what the S-10's used from the factory.

What do some of the manual trans gurus think?

Im thinking i should probably stick with the Lsx t56 and clutch components and i was looking at using the Mcleod adjustable MC anyways with a stock S-10 pedal assembly.


Thanks for the feedback, its always appreciated.
