- Converting a LT1 T56 to work on a LS1 application is a good way to get a budget T56. I ordered the Rockland Standard gear conversion kit and am working my way through the conversion process.
I'm just a shade tree hobbyist so don't take my methods for gospel. If you have any insight for better methods, please let me know!
thermal heat and freezing is the most undertaught tricks. probably only needed heat but good to see it worked. Thinking of doing same swap
Thanks for the how to. I'm looking to do this for my Beretta swap.
Cool project! Hope the video helps along the way.
Thanks for the video. It’s a big help.
would have been nice to see some of the operation of what you did!☹☹
Just subbed to channel hoped to learn a more cause all I do is break parts 😂
Good stuff
What is the part number for the input shaft for the LS application?
Awesome
I’ve searched everywhere and can’t find the part numbers for the input shaft bearing and the race that goes under it. The tremec PDF files only list the name of the part and the number associated. Could you look back at your order and let me know? Thanks
Has the transmission been used with the .003 endplay? If so how many miles with it functioning correctly? I'm trying to do the same thing shim a t56 amp plate.
That LT1stuff is not cheap u get get some good money for that old stuff
Have you put any miles on the trans yet?
How hard is it to install mid case back on t56?
Can you buy stock ls parts and swap them?
This isn’t necessarily about the swap, but can you tell me what shifter you used? I’m not sure what to buy.
When I bought the LT1 T56, it came with a Hawks short throw shifter. It was nice enough for me to use. I don't have experience with any other shifters (even stock), but the consensus on LS1tech seems to be MGW is the go to.
@@Crazed98Camaro Thank you so much!
How much is this kit?
All up I think he said about 1,600/ dollars?
How much is this kit?
It was $500, plus a $100 core that you get back when you send in the LT1 input shaft and mid plate.
