What year it he T56...?.. if it is a LT1 T56, no problem, If it is the new Corvette M6, not much chance unless you change the input and output shaft and housing to start with.

I believe an 08 would be a nightmare, the trans is actually a transaxle located at the rear of the car in that year and it uses a torque tube to go forward to the engine.
