You're getting into your swap at a good time as you have many more choices in components/kits than others did just a year ago. You owe it to yourself to check out all your options pertaining to compatibility, fitment and price. If it's of any value to you, you do not have to do any tunnel mods when using the Hooker components to install an LS and T56 (or any GM automatic for that matter) into a 1st-gen F-body with the exception of cutting the hole for the shifter...the 3rd-gen Nova guys are not quite so lucky.

Yup I'm open to whatever quality parts are out there.

I already have a manual, I thought for the T56 swap as long as it's from an F-Body car no cutting was needed even for the shifter. Am I wrong here? I thought that was just for T56 that came out of other body styles.

There is also this kit that someone pointed me towards, anyone have experience with it? http://www.brphotrods.com/products/1...cts/index.html
