T-56 swap into a foxbody info please
I'm a former 89' 5.0 LX hatchback owner, and I sold the car for 2 reasons, #1 I had a kid on the way, and didn't know what to expect and #2 it broke T-5 trannies about as often as I changed the oil !!!
I have a TT stealth R/T, a Turbocharged honda civic ( 14.6@94mph ), a saturn SL1, and a 01' focus ZX3 POS.
I'm thinking of selling the civic and buying another 5.0.
Problem is that I don't wanna spend $2500 on a TKO, but I don;t wanna break 3 trannies with-in 2 years ( like my former 5.0 ).
SO I'm looking into what is needed and what it would cost me to install and run a LT-1/LS-1 camaro T-56. I know it can be doen with out extreme mods, but I know for sure the driveshaft has to be shortened.
Anyway, any info, links, or suggestions are welcome
