Places that sell T-56 conversion kits? I have a couple listed that I have heard sell T-56 conversion kits but none of them have anything at the moment. Just trying to get a solid list of some places so I have a better chance of finding what I am looking for when I have the money ready. I know I can check the for sale section but I prefer to buy a whole kit from a place so chances are I will have everything needed for the swap.
Also how long typically do to the T-56's themselves usually last until they need to be rebuilt? I know the more power the car has and how hard it has been driven will have an effect but the general mileage?

I did a search and found quite a few actually but dont have all the money together yet. I'm pretty intimidated by the swap eventhough I did heads/cam by myself. Something about the cutting and wiring that scares me I guess because I have no experience with either. But, if I slap another Auto in there I would hate to regret not toughing it out and doing the swap potentially.

The wiring isn't too bad if you read through the sticky in this forum. Someone even posted a link to a site from which you can buy the reverse light/reverse lockout plugs for about a third of the dealer's price. I haven't found a source for the clutch position and anticipation switch plugs, though. If you can, find someone in the classifieds who is willing to swap harnesses with you. The wiring would be much easier that way.
