T-56: GM versus Ford

[mdlackey]

That is where this T-56 came from ... an '03 Cobra. Guy was trading it out for a C4, so he could take it to the strip.

So, I went ahead and bought it ($1600). There looks to be a spacer plate at the very front where the clutch arm mounts (pull-type). Believe that if that is removed, one of the "kits" out there will allow me to mount a bellhousing with a BOP bolt pattern, plus I'll need a different input shaft, most likely.

Interesting point: Was not expecting to see 10-spline ... and guessing ... 1 1/8" input shaft. Knew that Viper T-56's had 26-spline, but thought Fords might be different.

Anyone know the difference in input shaft lengths between Fords and GM's?

Thanks for everyone's replies ... looking forward to more.
