T56 with 2 piece rear main 350 What I got is a 350 with the old style 2 piece rear main seal and a T56 from an LT1 Camaro. I know the LT1 flywheel isn't going to work with my engine but the only solution I've found so far is this one from Centerforce http://store.summitracing.com/partde...7&autoview=sku and it's almost $400. You guys know of anything less expensive that would work, or a way to make the LT1 flywheel work? The tranny is set to arrive in 2 days so I havent actually had a chance to look things over and get an idea of what I could do. Thanks

I believe that is your only solution (although I believe there are several companies that make a similar flywheel). The problem is that the LT1 style T56 uses a pull style clutch which requires a unique flywheel. So you need a hybrid flywheel that mounts to your 2 piece main crank but accepts the pull style clutch.
