Into what? I have had several versions here so may be able to offer some advice on the main differences.

I think it will fit but only just. It's a bit of a squeeze. The t56 isn't much bigger overall but it's a lot more bulky as you'd expect.

I'm planning on fitting a complete LS1/T56 unit to a TVR chassis early next year. Believe me, it will fit, even if we have to defy the laws of physics

I looked very closely at this a while back and am sure it will fit without any major issues. Took quite a few mwasurements as well (thanks Jules). Main clearence to watch is the widest point of the heads relative to the height of the upper rails. You need a height measurement from the crank centre line to compare with your existing centre line.
