It may have to happen. Keisler is the company that makes the kit. I know it can be done with out taking the tranny apart but it's a bit tricky. Maybe $300 for the kit. To be honest I like the way it feels with the handle farther back, maybe 4-5" infront of the seat for the ball would be great.

If the input shaft for the driveshaft comes out of the t56 you can use a turbo 350 driveshaft 27spline input shaft.

we just swapped a ws6 ls1/t56 into my buddies 240 and we used a turbo 350 driveshaft

the input shafts could be different but worth a shot

Re: 56 L92 T-10 build started
 

Good to know! The CTSV has the non removable yoke. The GTO just slides out, I will try the T350 yoke. Thanks again

Re: 56 L92 T-10 build started
 

yeah no problem boss ill be hoping the 4l60e uses a 27 spline so I can throw it in the 69 burbran im picking up

Re: 56 L92 T-10 build started
 

Got the intake all finished, l think it looks good. Ran new power steering lines. Found some rad hoses that fit nice, I figure why not take the time and get hoses that look like they belong. I also got all the fuel lines run and pump and filter. I should have my harness back sometime this week and I can fire it up!

Re: 56 L92 T-10 build started
 

Got the parallel 4 link built and installed. I went with a set of QA1 coilovers at first but then ran into a issue up front. I want the truck to sit low but with the 84 chassis it's so wide it leaves no room for the wheels while turning. So scew it just air ride the whole truck. So in the process of air ride and my engine harbess I'm installing a military grade cannon plug at the firewall. http://i601.photobucket.com/albums/t...A7FA5D71B4.jpg

Engine sounds great! I see you got the BIG back window in place...looking good sir

Re: 56 L92 T-10 build started
 

Yeah the back window transplant was a pain in the ass, but worth every bit of it. Should be on the road by the end of March.

Re: 56 L92 T-10 build started
 

Working on getting the procharger intercooler installed. I will have to run a custom grille, price you pay for something different. I also split the harness in half so I could mount the ECM in the cab. Mil spec cannon plugs. 78 wires to cut and pin crimp, no fun! http://i601.photobucket.com/albums/t...183B01B61C.jpg

Re: 56 L92 T-10 build started
 

i used a CX racing universal intercooler (27" x 11" x 3") for mine, it fits better than that pro-charger setup, sits about a inch back from the outside lip of the grill shell (still need a custom grill).

Re: 56 L92 T-10 build started
 

Nice build. Thanks for sharing. I like the Mil spec cannon plug idea.

Re: 56 L92 T-10 build started
 

Thanks, I couldn't see mounting the ECM under the truck, plus it's so easy to remove the harness now and damn it looks awsome! Very very time consuming.

Re: 56 L92 T-10 build started
 

Been thinking long and hard about trying the powered rack and pinion install. After reading up on it I went ahead and ordered a 86 Thunderbird rack, $55! So here we go.

Re: 56 L92 T-10 build started
 

Keep it up. I am enjoying your progress

Re: 56 L92 T-10 build started
 

Been some time since I posted, been some good progress and some big changes. I decided to buy a 57 front end and sell the 56, the hood and fenders on the 57 are damn nice and OEM, I like them. I'm thinking I will shoot the entire truck with old school red primer and then a white and pull the white back down a little and leave it for a few years. http://i601.photobucket.com/albums/t...3D474C5FFB.jpg
I also completely finished the 4 link and built it all myself

Had some Intro wheels built 20x8.5 and 20x13, had to cut and narrow the rear end

Had the chevy astro van rear seat recovered and got the billet specialties column and wheel put in

Got the front air ride done with tubular control arms upper and lower and added bag plates

Can I get a moderator to move this to the build thread?

Re: 56 L92 T-10 build started
 

Been some time since I updated this. Been driving the hell out of the truck, no issues at all. Have just over 3k miles on the new build. Nothing is good enough for me, the truck made some good power on the Dyno 445 RWHP with the cammed LS3, but now I'm adding the LSA blower! Should be fun
