93 t56 in 94 camaro? Im about to do a t56 swap in my camaro and I'm wondering if the 93 trans will go right in? I know I need to get the M6 program on the PCM.. But I been reading the speedo hook up may be different from the 93 to the 94? Any one able to help me? Thank you!
I actually did a similar swap. I ditched the 3.4l M5 from my 94 to a lt1 from a 94 and a t56/M28 from a 93. I didn't have any real issue with the transmission working or bolting up just some clutch issues (misread torque specs). However, the computer needed tuning for that particular transmission to fix the speedometer (along with other engine upgrades). When it read 10mph I was doing 18 and and at 35 I was doing nearly 75. Once i got the computer re-tuned for the M28 I was good to go.

Thank you. Basically I read up on the computer tuning and plan to ship it to PCM 4 Less, but I'm just making sure the connectors will be I. The the trans for the speedo/reverse lockout since I know 93 was an odd ball year with the mechincal speedo etc. Any other tips would be great, but otherwise thank you guys a bunch for the answers!

And since I have the whole 93 camaro. I'm gonna pull the engine, tranny and reared. The interior is all ripped up so that's useless, the body is dented/ rust spots so I'm parting it out.
Anything else worth money/use on my 94 camaro that I should take off before I take it to the scrapyard?

One plus with the '93 trans is the lack of the CAGS (Skip Shift) solenoid. So you don't need the by-pass or anything.

Yes, you do. The PCM still looks for the resistance in the solenoid itself, even when tuned out. At least that's what happens with OBD2. I had to use a resistor to simulate the solenoid being there to avoid a check engine light.
