Check http://www.keislerauto.com They sell bolt-on kits for the C3, including ones that come with a modified t-56. If your's isn't modified, there may be some cutting of the tunnel required.

I Called them right away..... as soon as they found out I had my own trans I was told someone would call me right back..... That was over an hour ago...... Now they're closed I'm sure..
Does anyone know what all I'll need????

Click on "other" this page, go to tech tips C3. The first topic is about a T-56 install with pics. Hope this helps...

Viper or Camaro T-56? Big difference. Keisler sells the full kit not parts so they may be hard to get any info out of. GWhite75's install is probably your best source of info. That is the one that "Older Than Dirt" is refering to.

See this article for 6-speed install into an auto car: http://www.ddperformance.com/chevy_r...llation_ar.htm
the site has another install article, not as thorough: http://www.ddperformance.com/images/chevy.htm

it's out of a newer F body.... it looks like, with the right bellhousing, all I'd have to do is weld a plate on the crossmember for the trans mount, shorten the driveshaft & make a mount for the shifter!!!!
