If it's an aftermarket T56, I'd stay away.. The input shaft is too long, it won't mount an LS1 slave, and the shifter will sit forward too much.

It was designed as a direct replacement for the 3rdgen F-body T5 5-speed. The gearset was rated at 400lb-ft because of the smaller input shaft/countershaft interface and the wide-ratio gearing.
