Sorry if I'm posting this. I used the but I couldn't find it. I have a 91 Camaro RS. I wanna know if a ZZ383 crate will fit in my car with no fabrication just slip in.

 

it will bolt right up to your trans, so yes it will fit.

 

Not to a T-5.....what would you recommend for a manual tranny?



im happy that i can have a 383 in my camaro without fabrication

 

It will bolt up to your t5 but you will need a different flywheel. You could go t56 but that gets spendy. I know I just got mine done.

 

So you just slipped it in with some new headers , tranny, and all accesories, and thats that? how long that take you

 

ah a while. actully its still not done.

 

Where would you get a T56??? junkyard? im guessing new would be 2000$

 

Keep an eye on the parts for sale. One usally pops up every couple of weeks. And there is always ebay. This is how much my t56 swap cost.
T56 w/bellhousing - $800.00 (TGO board) used
Flywheel - $350.00 (Jegs) new
Clutch - $250.00 (Jegs) new
Hydrolics - $150.00 (ebay) new
Stock shifter - $40.00 (ls1tech.com) used
Aluminum spacer for the slave cylinder - $50.00 (Hawks) new
Crossmember - $100.00 (Spohn) new
Peddle assembally - $40.00 (TGO board) used
Miss. Bolts ect. - $15.00 new
Total - $1795.00
Now you could maybe do it cheaper. The spacer and shifter didnt come with the trans. You may get one that has thiese parts. But I think that is a good estimate on the swap.

 

Thanks, Im guessing a T56 can handle 500ftlbs of torque. But if i get that ZZ383, than the tranny would be almost at its limit wouldnt it?

 

Well the limit depends on how you drive it. I have a buddy who is putting down 425 hp to the wheels through a stock t56 and its even a 93 trans. (93 had weeker trans. If your going to get one look for a 94-97 trans.

 

thanks man, youve been very helpful. Just a few more things. Can my existing power steering pump, a/c pump and alternator on my 305 can be transfered to a zz383??? aswell as intake manifold and throttle body?

 

Yes all accesories will bolt up. As for the TBI. I would think about ditching it. If you can go with a mpi system do that. Otherwise I would think about switching to carb. But my vote would be for fuel injection

 

would you happen to have MSN or AIM?

 

my aim is grover1233.
