You brought cheap beer did'nt you!

A S10 will not work. The shifter is right over the middle of that tranny where the Camaro, and Vettes' I think, the shifter is over the tail shaft.

Oh hate to be a killjoy but you also have to consider that you need a T5 with a torque arm mount provision. And that will rule out Corvettes and only leave F bodies (Camaro and Firebirds).

Oh sure, you hate to be a killjoy!
You could actually put in any trans you want (one that bolts up to the engine that is) as long as youuse a remote torque arm mount.

So I lied a little
And since it went from an automatic swap to just replacing the manual the OP might not of wanted the extra work and cost so I just wanted to remind the person of the mount so there are no surprises while installing.

So I was not trying to be a Killjoy.................this time!
