Awesome project!

Ill never forget.. Years ago when i had a novi 2k on my 2v stang I raced a rx7 that looked just like this.. first time I beat him so I was cocky and then he shut me up the second race.. pulled the wheels on the 1-2 shift and jumped out 4 cars and let off.. later found out it was a built ls1 w/ nitrous. had 1 rusty lil tailpipe coming out the back haha.

You must have had to do some MAJOR floorpan Mods to fit that T-56 in there:??:


Nope, it is shockingly easy to fit. All you have to do is remove the factory transmission crossmember mounts. You need to massage the firewall a bit for the passenger side header to fit, but that is it. There is a new transmission crossmember for the T-56, and a small adaptor that bolts to the K member to bolt the engine in with stock Corvette motor mounts.
