You could have a bellhousing from a 4+3 vette, they used a combo of a 4 spd manual, and 3 spd auto trans. You may also have a T5 from who knows what, I know the newer V6 f bodys use a different case that wont bolt up to a thirdgen's T5 housing, might have changed when they went to tremec. They also have a 26 spline input shaft, so you might think its a V8 one.

No, and its gonna be almost as weak as using a thirdgen V6 T5, the first gear is 3.75:1, whereas the thirdgen V6 one is 4.0x, and the V8 is 2.95
