T56 to a SBC? Will an LS1 T56 bolt up to a SBC? I have a '70 Camaro and wanted to do an LS swap, but I think i'm going to leave the engine in there and just do a tranny swap. Will it bolt up and work without any major problems? I know th flywheel might be a concern.

the LT1 spec t56 will bolt up with a special flywheel if it is a pre 86 block. i actually have a spare ram #2555. it is 400$ new -> http://www.summitracing.com/parts/RAM-2555/
your t56 will need the LT1 input shaft + midplate to make it fit but this has been discussed here numerous times.

A ls t56 will bolt up to a sbc, but it takes a bit more work. If you are getting rid of your LS T56, Im actually looking for one, can you pm me the details and maybe we can work something out??

Ive seen the t56 adapter plate that lets you remove a muncie and retaine your old bell housing clutch and clutch linkage it says....so does that mean you use the same flywheel as well...mines a 2 piece rms

As long as you have a 26 spline clutch disk, yes. Been driving my car with an LS T56 since 2007 with this exact setup.
