t-56 in 67 Camaro

Just installed American Touring Specialties T-56 Crossmember kit in 67 RS. Fit and workmanship are awesome on this piece. I am glad to see a part that actually "fits" like it was made for the application.

Sweet.. got any pics? Im thinking about it... would like to see some stuff on it. Only if its convenient for you tho http://web.camaross.com/bb/smile.gif

600 bucks for a 6 speed out of a 94Z... think its a good deal? Friend has one he said he would sell to me. We can rebuild it ourselves btw

You say that punk to you is what's in your mind not what you
wear, but you know you're so full of sh*t
You scoff at how the cops treat you, but they're no worse than
dicks like you! I just can't understand what you're thinking

600 sounds fair if it is in decent shape. I will try to get the pics tomorrow.....

Here's a pic of the crossmember:

You guys seen the latest Car Craft (or was it Hot Rod)? Thereis a write up on an LS1 install witha T-56, etc. I guess www.yearone.com (http://www.yearone.com) has all the conversion parts needed now available in their catalog

What issue is it in ? Thanks for the info......

It was in Hot Rod, the latest issue. I bought it last week at the airport. The white w/orange stripes '69 Camaro convertible is on the front cover. Check it out at Year One:

Seen it... very sweet car (not my choice in colors tho). Love that console in there http://web.camaross.com/bb/smile.gif http://web.camaross.com/bb/smile.gif

Its a 4l60e tho, not a t56

Any suggestions on a fuel system. Should I go one big external pump (sump the tank) or should I fabricate brackets and go with an in tank pump and an external pump. BTW it has a lt-1 with a vortech supercharger......
thanks

Awesome, I hope to do this myself in about 1 years time. 68 Camaro, T-56 and LT1 combo with heads/cam job, ought to be sweet road racer material http://web.camaross.com/bb/biggrin.gif

you ought to consider an LS1/T56 instead... Yeah, the motor will run you a little more, and it is a bit more work to fit the motor in, but everything I've read about those LS1 motors says they are absolutely incredible. (or even track down a LS6 - making 405 NET hp in the current Z-06 vette!) There are plenty of camaros running very low times (in the 12's I think) with nothing more than traction, and a few bolt-ons - no real wrenching as all!

as for the console in the year one project, I think it's from a 4th gen car. Real nice job fitting it in too.

Yes, LS1 is a consideration, but the cost of the motor + $550 or so cost to edit the F'ING PCM!

I made 411 RWHP in my 94 as a daily driver, as it stood like that road racing was still difficult for my level of skill. With some gears in the rear and another 40 HP with a 'stiffer' cam, maybe some non-stock ported heads, 450+ RWHP will be RIDICULOUS enough for me thanks very much http://web.camaross.com/bb/smile.gif
