I originally was gonna toss in a 14B when I did the swap, but after a year or so of studying up on all this crap I've been amazed at what the ol' 10B can handle. Toss in a quality diff, which for me will be a truetrac, put on that heavy aluminum cover, preload the bearing caps, and you're set.

 

Right on...
My goal here isn't a track truck either...I just want a fun street truck. I also want to be able to tow or fill the box with a load of gravel or bricks or what have you and drive to my destination. Not looking for something that does 0-60 under 3 seconds and posts 9.XX 1/4 times...I'll buy an F-body for that, if I am ever so inclined.

 

I had my 456 gears put in and I have a vibration about 70 mph I'm not sure if it's driveshaft or clutch but somthing is out of balance, and I still haven't fixed my vss abs light I'm planning on taking the weekend off to fix the abs problem but need to know what you think the vibration poblem could be

 

If the vibe is dependent on wheel speed and not engine speed, then I'd say that eliminates your engine/tranny combo. I'd focus on the driveshaft, wheels outta balance, etc.

I would be looking at the drive shaft. Especially if you had it modified.

 

its been way to many years i been wanting to do this. im gonna slowwly get the parts together to swap a t56 in the SS. i plan on doing a rebuild with a camaro spec'd t56. this thread is awesome and i feel as if i know all i need to know to complete this.

im just wondering if the DBW has caused any problems with getting the cruise to work. i run a 275-45-20 so im gonna go with the 4.88's and a ls7 clutch. it should take bolt on 6.0 with a 150 shot.. lol i hope

 

Damn what a lot of reading Ok guys, I have a 06 CC. I have a 04 GTO t56 laying around I want to put in my CC. This is my daily and I do (not very often)tow less than 5000lbs with it. The rear end needs built right now as it whines like ****. 4:56's and a trutrac is what I am thinking?

I guess the real question is will I be happy if I do the following. I just want to make my daily driver a little more fun to drive and still be able to use it as a truck when needed. Here are the plans.

It has a 5.3 and I want to do the following: Cam, headers, exhaust, tune, t56, gears, locker. I would love to put a lq9 in it but I don't have the funds for that right now but I intend on doing a motor swap down the road and put the 5.3 in my 86 k10.

Will it be worth it?

Thanks guys for all the info in this thread!!!!

 

I guess the reluctor is 42 count according to joey at tick. I had them put the correct reluctor on mine when building it for my truck, trying to get some pictures. I also am using the kieseler shifter relocation set up. again awaiting pictures

 

Hmmm....tuning cannot take care of that??
Or is the speedo a combo of ECM/BCM function?
