He actually took out a manual but the forged crank output shaft on the stroker block is not compatible with the ZL1 transmission? He explained it all to me after I left his shop. Apparently the 1LE transmission on the naturally aspirated car has the same power ratings, gear ratios, etc and has the only output shaft that is going to work on that crankshaft. He ordered it directly from GM and had it shipped overnight. He split the trans cost and paid for freight to put my old trans in his inventory. So he has a ZL1 6 speed manual with 5000 miles in his inventory now if anyone needs one.

He has the car completely assembled and is driving it now. He does the full break in with 3 oil changes on new motors before he ever puts the car back on the dyno. That way he feels confident in guaranteeing his work.
Dang... I was hoping he had an Auto transmission just laying around..

His work is impeccable. You're going to love it...
