TRANSMISSION

1997 Camaro T56 DONOR (traded some old psi washing equipment)
after tearing into it and finding more damage than i expected from a 85k donor, had to weigh options on purchasing a new magnum or finding another t56 but for ls. with the new magnum being almost 5k, no luck on finding a ls t56, and tick performance telling me to "just buy a new magnum" i decided to just convert and build this as a stage 2 t56.

NEW LS input shaft - REM finished
NEW TREMEC Mid Plate
NEW TIMKIN bearings shipped from FRANCE. Weird, no one here in the states had ALL timkin.
