92 LQ9 swap

[Wtfan18]

does the flywheel from an ls1 bolt on to the LQ9? And where is the shifter located with a T56? i dont like the typical long goofy shifter that manual trucks have.

Thanks for all the info so far guys!! This site seems to be more informative than fullsizechevy.com when it comes to this subject.

my transmission didnt come with a clutch or flywheel or pressure plate or any of that. i bought the ls7 clutch kit and a new slave. i would reccoment the same. itll cost you probably 600+ but it was worth in IMO. the clutch is rated for pretty decent HP and really grabs well. so im not sure if it will bolt up i would assume so...

but the flywheel will come in the LS7 clutch kit and should bolt right on. i did a 5.3 swap and it was a direct swap. i did replace the flywheel bolts though. they were only a few $ on SDparts. my truck came as a 5 speed so i had the option of buying a relocator for the t56 and using a big goofy shifter but i decided to use a short throw hurst t-56 shifter and just cut another hole in my floor. it came up through the floor in what i believe is a PERFECT location at least for the way my seats and arms reach... i love it. soo much faster shifts than the big stick... extremely tight close shifting with the t-56 its taking some getting used to. i already stuffed it from 3rd back into 2 and though i about blew my motor... it sounded pretty nasty... not in a good way. i dont think ive heard a motor scream that loud before haha luckily my foot was still on the clutch and i stuffed it back in before it touched rev limiter.

where did you get the engine mount adapters from? i found some from street and rod performance and i was curious if they were sold anywhere else. Thanks again for the info im gettin real excited about the T56 swap now i just need to find one!

Ebay, Advanced Adapters and Hooker are a few places that come to mind other than S&P.

i found mine on LS1tech.com the kid was from connecticut and was putting a m-6 in his z28 camaro. bout a 4 hour drive but it was worth it. id check on there or check ebay it i lost like 6 times on ebay and got fed up with it and just bought it outright from someone. no bidding wars involved.
