Yup you would have to switch in an LS1 input shaft. LS1 shaft is about 6.5" and LT1 is around 5 or 5.5"

If you swap the input shaft then it should work. I think everything else is the same I think.

Hey man I need LS1 parts for my LT1 T56, we could swap parts and just pay shipping to one another if you want. Get at me on AIM @ MxRacer476. I have a complete LT1 T56 so I have the input shaft, front cover, and bellhousing. Slave Cylinder, and fork. Let me know...
