Indeed.
You can sometimes modify the corvette transmissions into the correct “format” but it’s easier and cheaper to buy the right one in the first place. The amount of time and money I spent on modifying the C7 7-speed probably wasn’t worth it but at least it’s unique, this one looks like the C5 Z06 t56 which isn’t that great.

See i guess i forgot to mention. It already has the shaft changed because it came out of a ls swapped supra. So i ordered a bellhousing for $250. Now i just need a tailend and bam its ready. Thats why i went with that tranny
