Default Tr6060?

So I bought a tr6060 from a 2012 camaro. I was under the impression that the trans would fit. As long as I change the Bell housing and input shaft. Trans is getting bolted to a 383 striker gen1 block. Until I finish up my ls motor. Any info would be great I have read and read and found myself stuck at a road block... thanks.

The tr6060 has a integrated bellhousing as far as finding a clutch and flywheel to bolt to a gen1 block I don't have an answer but you can find tons of info on the web.

Where do you live? I might have a T56 M12 I will swap you. It is bolted up to a LS3 right now, but I originally had it bolted to a SBC. It used an adapter plate and special throwout bushing and you bolt it right up. No need to swap out the input shaft.

No idea sorry, the TUET is 10878, maybe contact Tremec (or one of their agents) and see if they can help?

I can't find a single one on the Internet with an integral bellhousing. Every one of them shows the bellhousing as being removable.

Pretty sure my TR6060 has an integrated bellhousing (Gen 5 Camaro) and they all do in general. I have seen them removed but I dont think thats the norm. From what I understand they have to be modified to be removed. The BH is mated to the front case.

yea so I heard. Another member sent me a custom write-up on one, but it was from back years ago. I just didn't know if a retro kit has been created since then. Thanks for the reply
