Default Help me decide (T56 bellhousing)

Howdy folks. I'm trying to find the right bellhousing for my T56 to put in my 63 Corvette.

I bought an aftermarket T56 from Forte's and I was planning on using my old Muncie bellhousing, but once I got the transmission here I test fitted it with my old bellhousing and realised the shifter was tilting 18 degrees towards the passenger side. I have the adapterplate on it now and I thought it would work with the muncie BH.

Anyway, now I'm thinking about getting a 93-97 LT1 camaro T56 bellhousing for it. It would allow me to use hydraulic clutch assembly and 11" clucth. Plus the LT1 camaro bellhousing is 1.5 shorter than the one from muncie, this would move the shifter into a better location too.

So I think my question goes: Can I bolt the LT1 camaro bellhousing behind my old gen small block, also will it work with our the adapterplate? Is the transmission on 93-97 Camaros tilted towards the passenger or does the shifter point straight up?

Thanks for the input!

Jay
