Urgent help needed regarding T56 into FC
 
I tried to register to that norotors.com, but get messages about problems with their database. Anyone know a contact e-mail for the forum owner or a moderator at norotors.com?

I will ask here what I was going to ask there. Currently I have a 1986 GM 305 in my '87 turbo mounted on a Granny's engine subframe and a T5. I built it in 2001. Everything works well but I want a bit more overdrive, so am thinking of a T56. There is a T56 I am aware of in a 1995 Camaro that I need to move on fast (possibly this morning).

Besides a rear transmission mount, a different driveshaft, and possibly modifying the exhaust what do I need?

As best I have been able to find the input shaft is the same diameter and number of splines as my T5. Can I use the Centerforce clutch I have now? (only 5K gentle miles). The flywheel was a new Hays (also 5K miles).

TIA

Might have some luck in this section.

How did you have your clutch slave setup in your T5? That may need to change.

It is a fork type using the RX-7 slave cylinder. That will have to change.

As it turned out I did not get to inspect the tranny today, but maybe tomorrow or Monday. In the meantime I received answers to most of my questions, so I think I'm good to go if the tranny is good.

Thanks!
