I'm dumb
The front plate is where the Hyd throw out bearing bolts to.

Do you have any part number. My friend is a gm tech. He can order the parts.

To put a LT1 T56 on a LS1 engine you need to change the bell housing, front plate and input shaft, the parts will run you between 4-5 hundred new, and the people that have used parts usually know what they have and want close to new prices for their stuff.
