What would you have to do, cuz it looks identical. Would I only have to modify the front for the release fork?

IIRC the viper trannys are identical minus the apparently "stronger" internals

it will work but you will need a new bellhousing i believe and an input shaft

there's probably someone out there that has already done it...maybe try searching in google?

type in something like "viper camaro t56 differences"

did a little diggin for yah

For a durable overdrive gearbox, there are the T56 and the Richmond six-speeds. Within the T56 gearbox family there are two different boxes: the Viper box and the ’93-and-later Camaro setup. The Dodge Viper box has a larger output shaft with 30 splines. For Chevy swapping purposes, the T56 from a ’94-and-later Camaro is the ideal candidate because of its strength and 26/27 input and output shaft splines. Because of different lengths and bellhousings, T56 dimensions may vary. The ’94 Camaro has a 26.37-inch overall length and a 21.08 trans-mount length.
