G force will do the adapters if you get the transmission from them. They will not just do a bell housing conversion as a one off anymore. As for the clutch disengage. From everyone I've seen the stock bell housing has to be milled down past the stock clutch fork mount, rendering the stock throw out useless and requiring a hydraulic throw out bearing. If that's not the case that's one long input shaft they are using on the transmission. With the longer ls1 input shaft the bell housing is still milled way past the fork mounting area. As for the speed sensor you don't need the kit from import muscle. All you need is a Dakota digital. It can convert the stock t56 speed sensor to a correct mph no problem.

Of all the boxes I've ever got, this is one of the most exciting ones.
BTW, where is that big sensor on the left of the black plate? I don't see yours.
Did they send you all of the fluids also?
a) Main body right side- switch with black/green wires -As I understand that is the Reverse light switch
b) Tailhousing upper left side in shifter hole switch with red/black and green wires- Reverse lockout switch wired to Brakes 12V
c) Tailhousing lower left side- switch with yellow and brown wires- Speedo sensor
What are our differences? What am I missing?

Ok, yours has a skip shift solenoid as per Shane. I have a plug, you have a solenoid. This is his response:"the plug labeled D is just a plug its hard to find the plugs they are used on export cars only. Chads transmission has the skip shift solenoid in that spot to plug the hole. That sensor is to make you shift to 4th instead of 3rd at low speeds for fuel economy."
My response: I wouldn't believe Spoolin carrying such a screen name, buying such a trans, and having such a car would worry about fuel economy, lol.
Ha, I'm kidding I didn't say all that. Only half...
