Hi Jerry,

I'm doing the works on a T56 for a club member at the moment. It's getting the shifter conversion, billet steel keys in 1-2, 3-4 and 5-6 and a steel 3-4 shift fork from the Viper T56.

I've been thiking about publishing the T56 shift conversion as I just don't have the time to keep up with them. I might doccument this one and see if I can put something together.

I like the Chev LS1 and I'm running one in my Cobra. I've got most of a spare engine and was thinking of using it in the FED project. All aloy block and heads, 6 bolt mains etc. It's a tough motor and with the addition of a 6-71 and an injector hat (probably an Enderle bird) and run it on methanol it would make good cheap power. MSD make a module that just runs the factory coils for guys that want to run a carb so the ignition is easy.

Cheers
