is it hard to make an auto a 6spd?

the T56 is a manual found in Camaros Vetts and Vipers

I agree mostly, except an LS2 or a GM truck motor with a LS style intake on it would be better. One of the newer 6spd autos found in the 3/4ton trucks are nice as well if you want to go with an auto. I suppose a 4l60/80 would work.

is it hard to make an auto a 6spd?

Since you are installing a newer motor and trans anyways the swap to stick is not as difficult as if you were going to swap for a stocker.

if your looking for cheap and easy..see my sig
other wise x100 on what you have already been told

i would love to drop in an ls1 but they cost so much. mosy likely it will be a built 350

 

[Sherman_thetank]

350 is easy as long as your going with a carb, as for trans, th400 is ideal, but if your going to drive it on the street a 700r4 is a better option....and alot cheaper and easier to find.
