i want to change my 700r4 and put in a 6 speed manual. are there kits?

No kits , best bet craigslist and junk yards . I found a donor car , buy an aftermarket crossmember and read all the posting u can find about the swap . Good luck

All you need is junkyards and cash. Wait till you get old, you will want the auto back.

I just finished this swap and it is amazing! Still have a couple things to iron out, like leather shifter stick cover etc. but it is so sweet to be on the highway at 1500 RPM's before I was just over 3100 (have 3.70 gears)

Anyway, it is mostly plug and play if you have a 1pc rear main seal. I think you will have to convert your speedo to digital, I think Camaro's had mechanical till 91 (I believe) the Trans Am's were changed in 87 ( I think because of the digital dash)

If have an older block _pre 86 you will need a special flywheel. I had to buy this but the Spec version is sweet!

So much more fun to drive now and think of gas you will save!

Check these for full details ( I have cut it down to just want is required its 4 pages send me a message if you would like me to email it to you:

i think ill do that.....after i put my dash, motor, and head light wire harnesses in. Thanks man!

I had the swap done on my GTA recently and I love it. Just make sure you don't go crazy with the clutch. I had a Spec Stage 3 put in and I have a love hate relationship with that clutch. If you don't make more than 400hp, then a standard street clutch is fine. Also, with the T56s, you would want to go to lower rear gear. If you have an auto, you might have 3.23s or lower. I have 3.42s in my car and I wish I had 3.73s. With 3.42s, 6th gear in my car is useless until I get to 70mph where I'm turning 1800rpms.

The stock shifter stick is garbage also. It has this rubber bushing that makes it hard to get into gear during spirited driving. I recommend getting a solid stick like Lou's short stick to improve the feel. Otherwise, good luck. I love my T56 and don't regret doing it at all.
