The exceptions are with the TH200c and/or when you go to a non-fbody rearend (measure twice and cut once)

That is a ls1 swap.

Okay, change in plans:
I picked up another engine/tranny package. This engine is out of a 2001 LS1 with only 18k miles on it!!! Already has the LS6 intake, and I picked up a Z06 cam kit out of a 2002 Corvette Z06 to put in, as well. This tranny is an automatic, and since I'm actually gonna be doing a lot of city driving, it's probably better that I stick with auto, anyway. (Plus, it's one thing less to have to convert over!)
So, I've got a bunch of parts (99 LS1 engine, T56 tranny, LS6 intake, Z06 clutch kit) that are all now up for sale!!
