I'm giving it serious consideration but do not know my flywheel tooth count. I have a TH350 now and it is coming out along with the engine. I am purchasing a GM Crate 350/290 engine. With 326 in lbs of torque could you tell me if a stage 1 perfect fit kit for 68-82 Corvette four speed automatic overdrive kit would be sufficient? If it is I would be glad to request a quotation but not sure how to get the tooth count on the flywheel.
Thank you.

David the Stage 1 will be perfect for your application and give you a little cushion for power adders later. The Auto set up is not as complex. We just need to know what millimeter the flexplate bolt pattern is but I can help you with that.

Give us a call looking forward to hearing from you.

Default 6-Speed Kit

Years ago, we had a 6-speed PerfectFit kit for C3 - no cutting, perfect shifter position, etc. It was based on a Viper T56, which we could purchase new from Tremec at the time. Tremec can't sell those now, so we are doing Viper T56 only as a reman now, inhouse, with a 12 month warranty under the special.

So the answer is YES, we can do it. We still have the crossmembers in stock, etc. For a swap from 4-speed to 6-speed, the cost is $4395, and you will have to send your speedo off to Redline Gaugeworks or Roger's Clocks for conversion to modern electronic guts - not a big deal. Or you can purchase a signal converter from us that converts the electronic pulse to mechanical out put drive (cost is around $300).

Order today, and Gene or Jeff can hook you up with some Black Friday adders!!

Well, They don't advertise the T-56 kits, and have the crossmembers available and in stock but Jeff said they won't sell me a crossmember for my T-56 conversion. Fine, I will make my own and you don't get a sale.WTF!

63mako,

Sorry for the confusion. We don't sell the crossmembers seperately because there is no profit in it to support the tech support/customer service that comes with the sale.

For T56, there are so many models that can be adapted behind a SBC/BBC, each having its own bell depth. Then add to that complexity the gen 3 LS which has no standard for retrofit into classic vettes ... and you get a hairy mix.

The PerfectFit C3 T56 kits we do put a lot of the variables in our control so we can make it work.

If you have a Viper T56 and want to send it in, we can rebuild it, and make it into a kit.

Take Care

I have the D&D Chevy-Viper T-56. It is new and don't need rebuilding. I planned on modifying my crossmember to fit but figured if you have already engineered the product, produced it and have it sitting there in stock, there is more profit in selling your product to me than refusing a sale.
A TTT for you anyway, Pretty good deal on your kits.
Edit: Got your PM, Will call next week.

Typically a phone call works best to check on order status since we are not always on the forum. I sent you a PM requesting your information or just call me direct at 888-609-8187 ext. 210. Thanks!
