Is there a difference in the LT1 and LS1 T-56's? I heard that a Z-06 clutch wouldnt fit into my LT1 car? I am not really sure why. Please help... I have the Z-06 clutch sitting in the garage. thanks

lt1 and ls1 cars use different clutches and different hydraulic setups

the ls1 uses a normal clutch with the slave mounted on the input shaft, and it presses on the pressure plate

lt1's use the older style external slave but use a pull stlye pressure plate
