Re: High School Hot Rod, 1968 C10
I guess I need to look a little closer...could be a ZF trans... it is from a 1994 corvette.

Re: High School Hot Rod, 1968 C10
Swap the input shaft and bellhousing and your t56 will work on the ls. Visit 3rdgen forum theyve got info on it there.

Re: High School Hot Rod, 1968 C10
I wanted to edit my initial post... but can't.
It is a ZF6, not a t56. I found out from the corvette guys that I need a bell housing and a throwout bearing, that is all. I am working on that now. |

Re: High School Hot Rod, 1968 C10
Well, the frame just came back from chemical dip. Boy is that clean. Before we set up the suspension, can anyone give me a shot of a modified wheel base... i.e. wheel centerline moved forward or aft. To me it looks like the front centerline could be moved forward some. Any thoughts? We are running 18" wheels, 255-55 tires
