I want to convert this to a GTO style transmission so that it can be used in hot rod applications.
What parts are needed?
GTO bellhousing
GTO style input shaft
LS1/GTO style front bearing plate
Fbody/GTO style tailhousing
do I need to change out the mainshaft/output shaft?
Anything else needed?
Thx!

Found this link which answered many of my questions:

Thank you Mike for that great writeup!
I can retain my C6 input shaft which saves some $.
Still waiting to confirm if I can run the 32 spline SSR mainshaft or the smaller GTO unit.
Here is what I have laying around:
GTO bellhousing
LS1/GTO style front bearing plate
Fbody/GTO style tailhousing
Fbody shift rail (needed for this swap)
