Are you asking about a GM T56 converted to use a Viper mainshaft or are you asking about an actual Viper T56 to install in a Viper ?

The best thing to do is a viper conversion on your current one. It will be just as strong in our opinion and will cost a heck of a lot less. A viper trans will not bolt into an LS1 car without alot of mods if you went that route. If you do a conversion it uses yours.

I got your PM and will call you in the morning.

Thanks,
Amber

Well basically you need a Viper mainshaft and modified tailhousing to accept the larger seal and bushing .
