viper t-56 to LS engine

[clay69camaro]

I've got a viper 6 speed installed in my car right now. I got the whole auto to stick kit from keisler, but now I want to ditch my pre 85' 350 and drop a new vette engine in there instead. What am I going to need to change? just the bell housing and pilot bearing, maybe the throwout bearing???
Thanks everyone.

There are so many ways to do your current adaptation (Viper T56 to SBC) that your best bet is to talk to Keisler.

I agree talk to Keisler, I think they are a dealer for Quicktime too.

Basically the only thing you need to change is your flywheel and Pilot bearing.

The issue may be finding a 153 tooth LS flywheel.This is needed due to the configuration we used to get this trans to go into the stock hole. The regular Gm LS Pilot bearing will work fine. If you need a stronger clutch I can supply that for you.

As long as the motor sits in the stock location it will all fit back in the same way.

thanks alot guys. The plans changed again and I'll be going with another better sbc. But we'll be in touch keisler because I need a something to get my speedo to work. Electronic sender from the trans on the viper? and I think a better clutch, because I'm gonna actually make some power.
