would like to see an update as well.
@Rob94hawk. if you haven't figured it out yet...for your lt1 t56 to become a LSX based t56, you need three things:> 1) LS1 Bellhousing 2) ls1 mid plate 3) ls1 input shaft. Then you need the hydraulic throw out bearing and associated clutch.

Hey guys, sorry this thread sort of went dead. Had a rough couple years and ended up having to sell the drivetrain. But, good news, I have sourced a new engine to continue on with the swap, it just needs to be rebuilt so it will still be a bit before I have the lt1 in the car. It now has a forged 6.0 in it, th400, and 8.8 and plan on racing it for a year or until the 6.0 lets go. I will be building the lt in the mean time, but plan on doing a 400+ cubic inch motor built for boost. I will be making another thread for a customer car I have that will be in sema next year. It is a 3rd gen camaro, n/a gen v lt1, tr6060 car. Car is currrently headed to paint, but I will post updates of it also.

I'm currently planning to possibly swap either a Gen V LT1 or an LT4 and putting together a plan of action. Do you mind if I annoy you with general swap questions in this thread from time to time?

Hello I am currently doing a LT4/8L90 swap in a f body
was wondering if I could ask you a few questions as well it would be greatly appreciated.
I’ve just started the build and hope to have it done in 90-120 days the major problems I have is help and shops fabricators are all month + away
I have UMI k member #2320
not sure if I can use the same mounts
I’m still trying to stay power steering not sure if the rack will work.
I wanted to run holleys EFI system but after talking to them seems they don’t have a system for the 8L90 I was told to make a stand alone and just run HP tuners.
any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks and God bless

This thread is dead and useless now that the op has stopped his conversion. Only good information on the first post lol. Maybe should start a new thread with some people who have actually completed this swap or near finishing it.
