    t56 swap progress

    i know everything you just said, but the ds will likely be spot on, remember, im puting this into a 1984 mk2, NOT a mk3. i already plant to cut all mounts off the trans etc... and the bh should fit fine. ive already measuredand itll be tight in there but looks to be fine. just no room to get the...

    t56 swap progress

    i agree, it would be nicer, but way more exspensive. the main reason i went this way instead of cuting and welding a stock bh on is that alot of people want an adaptor to use a 700r4 transmission, well, this adaptor will allow them to do that. and use any other gm trans as well pretty much...

    t56 swap progress

    get it from a viper or a chevy lt1 if you can. those are the 2 strongest t56's in production cars. the mustang and ls1 t56's are rated to less power.

    where to get tripple plate flywheel?

    um, all over the place. this thread is for a 7.25in clutch. tilton, quartermaster, sonic and tons of others make the twin and tripple 7.25in clutches. iirc with the r154 you cant use a tripple. too thick. im using a t56 so hopefully i got enough room for the internal slave cylinder. the flywheel...
