1976 C10 LQ4/T56 build
 

So I've been gathering some parts to get this project underway and it's time to start documenting it. I've currently have a 327/saginaw 4 speed in my truck and swapping it out for a 6.0 LQ4 and a T56. I will also be installing factory low back buckets with console and hopefully some Vintage Air with the LS compressor.

This list is not everything, I know. This is more to keep me somewhat organized, and when I am done hopefully will be helpful to others as I will update part numbers as I go.

What I have:
LQ4 complete pull out
F-body T56 with Texas Drivetrain Performance's stage 2 build and mid shift conversion
factory hydraulic clutch pedals (bushings?)
GMPP Flywheel 12571611
GMPP LS7 Clutch 24255748

Tejas Steelworks trans crossmember

ARP flywheel bolts 330-2802
ARP pressure plate bolts 134-2201
ARP bellhousing bolts 134-0901
ARP engine mount bolts 134-3102 (needed 8 bolts but kit only comes with 6, so ordered 2 kits. have 4 spare if anyone needs 2)

What I need:

You will love the 6-speed :-)

Check out my build thread, I just finished the truck. I'm sure it will help you with the "unanswered" questions you will soon encounter.

Or just holler at me on here.

Thanks, I'm sure I will have plenty of questions.
