? transmission type swap ?

[jcamaroguyb3]

is it possible to swap out a automatic transmission and drop in a six speed (lets say in a 4th gen camaro z28.. ) i know it would take alot of work... but what would i need 2 do it and how much would it cost? is it even worth it to try or is this just a ridiculously dumb idea?

Yes it can be done. Though you better not be talking about doing it to a V6 4th gen.

nope... my car already has a 5speed - im getting a z28 this summer... but its hard to find one with a standard for less than 5grand :/

Theres one on waters ave, just off anderson right now for $3995 and from what i saw, its in pretty good shape.

Hell i bought my 94 6 spd back in 2001 with 69k for $7000

your lookin at about 1000-1500$ just for the T56... then more money for the crossmember, pedals, slave, driveshaft work etc. better off buying a 6 speed right off the bat. im tryin to get a T56 to put into my monte carlo ss and im up to about 2k in parts and thats not even after i drop it in.

its not really worth the $$$ and time sourcing the parts to convert. save the money for the conversion and build up the 4l60E with a stall and you will be much happier in the long run.
