Welcome to the Michigan FBody Association website.
The Michigan FBody Association is a centralized website for FBody enthusiasts to discuss what's going on in the Michigan area. MiFbody.com was created to allow for an easy one-stop place to find out what's going on in Michigan as far as FBody events, to find out what clubs are available in your immediate area, and for an easy place to post classifieds for items you want to sell! Our goal was to create a more close-knit community of FBody enthusiasts in the state of Michigan, and to bring Camaro and Firebird enthusiasts alike together for some amazing FBody events!
The most important thing to know about the Michigan FBody Association is that we are NOT a club! The Michigan FBody Association is open to everyone, and is a community. Thus, we will have get togethers, casual cruises, events, and such like that, but this is not an exclusive club and it's 100% free to join this site! So what are you waiting for? Register now!
If you have any problems with the registration process or your account login, please contact us!
I wouldn't think there'd be a ton of difference and that it would be fairly simple. However I don't know the specifics on the differences on these tranny's.
The T56 is physically larger than the T5 but if your doing a 4th gen swap then you would need to gather all the V8 parts to interchange. Trans. crossmember, (if different) Driveshaft, Shifter, Also I don't know if the bellhousings are interchangable either. I would say with the right Parts it should be pretty straightforward.

"Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical, liberal minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end."

I am not positive but i would say the bolt pattern on a v6 and v8 are different other than that it would be a easy swap in the 4th gen.
I always try and cross transmissions with engines in cars. For example..... A 2.2 in a Sonoma has a T5 or 4L60E which is also the same tranny setup used on 4.3 Sonoma which makes sense because a 4.3 is a sawed off 350.
Ask youself, what else does a T56 come in and how does that relate to my 3.8? Viper? (hell no), Cobra? (would be sweet, but no), Camaro/Trans Am? (ding ding ding).... Now what Auto trans comes in the Camaro? A 4L60E....what auto trans comes in the 3.8? 4L60E? If so you've got a match! They use the same block weither you have an M5, M6, or A4. I'd say it fits....
