Big block with T-56 
Big block with T-56
I used a flywheel from Mcleod when I put a LT1-style T56 behind my BBC. I ended up using a LT1 style clutch as well. I'll see if I can find the parts number I used. I know they also have flywheels to allow you to use a LS1-style set-up too.
Just a little FYI... I had a t56 behind my 355 w/ around 350-375 hp... It was a 1997 tranny and I had it in a 1966 c-10. It did fine for a few months and then snapped. If your sticking a lt1 style t56 behind a BBC with anything done to it, you might want to have the tranny gone thru and beefed up a bit. Just my .02

Six Speeds Inc (formerly T56 Rebuilds) can pop in a Viper mainshaft for ya. D&D did mine for me, but I here great things about Joe and Amber at SSI. Should hold up for you after that... Don't need a special flywheel though. I run a 1/4" spacer on my slave cylinder to make up for the thinner flywheel (making the clutch sit further ahead thus the fork further back). Makes the mechanical advantage a little better anyway for my quick tap on the clutch. This is with an LT1 clutch and T56 BTW. Mcleod has even finally made a run of SFI bellhousings for LT1s if you want to abuse it. Spec Stage 4+ here.
