i am doing a T56 conversion on my 93...well, i cant find any damn documentation on anyone doing a 93, just 94-97(which ive been using)...but more specifically the electrical. ive got a 5 wire connecter that went on the 700r4 for the vss gear, but the pigtails i bought for the t56, not one has 5 wires.. if anyone has any experience doing a 93, i would greatly appreciate talkin with ya through pms or whatnot.

 

anyone?

 

Have you found the answer to this one yet? I'm doing a t56 conversion on my 93 and was wondering about the 5 wire connector. I assume it will just hang there. I don't think it's for the VSS, the rear connector with 2 wires is for the VSS, or so I assume.

I need to find out how to hook up the Reverse Lockout... in the tutorial it says to tap into a certain wire into the PCM, but that is on 94-97s, 93 PCMs are different.

Anything on this? Thanks

 

I just finished my t56 conversion a few weeks ago, with help from my buddy of mine. I didn't use the 5 wire connector. I just tucked those wires up out of the way. You are right about the VSS connector. I didn't worry about the reverse lock out connector. I hope this helps ya if you have anymore questions let me know.

 

yep, the 5 wire connector just got zip tied outta the way..the reverse lockout i didnt bother with...i can mustle through it, it only takes about 60lbs...not enough to throw it in on a race situation, but enough for me to put it in to go in reverse. and i did figure out the VSS thing...it was that connector you referred to...and holy jesus my car is just so much more fun...i really can feel SOTP power because ever since i had my blower on, it roasted auto's and they just slipped and slipped...its fun breakin them loose in 3rd

 

im thinking about doing the same thing with my 93. went to the track last night with a bigger shot, went 11.1 @ 123, 7.2 @ 99. my 1/8th mile mph was 3mph higher than last time i ran and i gained nothing at the end in the 1/4. so my 4L60 is slippin like a ****. i have 3.42s and at the end of the 1/4 i was at 6600rpm's it is slipping so bad.

 

for a track oriented car, id stick with the auto...maybe look into a TH350/400 setup?

 

Hey, did yous 93 guys ever have a problem with the VSS on your T56 trannies? The reason I ask is because I got mine from a 95Z and the VSS is a little different than my 93. So my speedometer is always pegged.

Any info on this would be GREATLY appreciated!

 

yes, i thought it was odd aswell, but the 700r4 in the 93's dont send the same pulse signal as the 94-97 4l60e's...a t56 swap into a 94-97 would show 17/40 of your actual speed.

easiest thing to do if your relatively stock is get a mail order tune that is programmed with the 6spd bin file...biggest problem i had regarding that is a little 40 mile drive equated to about 1200 odometer miles so my car depreciated slightly but was fine once i burned the new chip in
