Default ls1 and lt1 t-56 questions

I just put the ls7 clutch in my car, and the mechanics said that my stock ls1 clutch still had life left on it, and that the pressure plate is still good. Now, we all know that ls1 clutches don't hold well with our power, but what about lt1 power? My question is, can I sell my ls1 clutch to a lt1 owner, and it will work? I know we both are t-56 trans, but input shafts and what not, will it fit? If so, how much could I sell it for.

One other question, I didn't see it in the F/S area, but do we have a sub forum dedicated to wondering price on parts? Like, if I wanted to sell off some of my stock parts, broken ls6 mani (can be fixed by someone with good knowledge), ect, is there a place that we can ask and see what others have to say? I guess testing the waters, but not interested in selling just yet, because of lack of time. Thanks.

LSx clutches would not work in LT1's.

Gay. I was hoping that the T-56 would be similar enough to work.

It's got nothing to due with the Transmission..Clutch design and thickness.
