t56 swap question

[vnms96]

i was just looking at the ddperformance web page at the t56 swap kits and they come with the tranny, crossmember, driveshaft, and mounting hardware. my question is do they use they same clutch assembly as a t45?

nope doubt it on the clutch. the t-45 has a 10 spine input shaft the t-56 prolly has a 26spline, id suggest gettin an aluminum fly wheel while ur at it, less rotating mass

i dont know if i'm even gonna do it. but its one of my options

no you can use your clutch but if the D & D kit is 26 spline thats a big no!!

thanks for that thread, i read it. i was told by a local guy to keep my stock flywheel since i'm n/a because they help with torque, is that true?
