 Post subject: Manual Trans Swap??
PostPosted: Tue Sep 22, 2009 8:44 pm 
Ok. So I heard that a select few early 90s grand prixs had a 5 speed manual trans. Anyone thought of swappin their 97-03 grand prix auto for a manual? if so, what parts would you need?

The best way I can think of is taking a trans from a 3800 Camaro and swapping EVERYTHING that way. But you will need to rework both from and rear suspension/axles and it's not easy.

actually we've (the 3800 f body crowd) found out it's cheaper to actually to do a T56 conversion. There's a couple places now making the adapter plates and the correct spline count input shafts.

Yeah, it was a lot of work, but even more fun to drive.

Im going to invest in the 5 speed transmission swap. For the 6 speed you have to cut the frame, making it uninspectable and also 5 speed would be cheaper
came across this, this is what motivated me. http://www.clubgp.com/newforum/tm.asp?m ... =1&smode=1
Figured Id just swap in a L67 motor with the GEN V and a couple other mods, Im pretty sure the tranny would hold up alright.
Can someone help me find a parts list?

^^^ there is a way to make it inspectible if u mod ur body and frame, well at least here you can. all i had to do if it failed at the inspection garage is just take it to the state garage and they probbily would pass it

then again my frame and body didnt need to be cut like noahs
