i dont know much about them other than i use to have a 99 camaro when i was young and insurance was almost 500 a month. anyways i have got a wild hair and decided to buy a 95 camaro with a automatic trans that dont run my question is since a motor change might be step 1 can you put a 5 speed in it without much trouble? and if so what year models could i get one from to fit the 95 camaro thanks guys i have not got the car yet but was just wanting to ask this question as it might decide weather i buy it to start a project thanks and it has a 3.4

 

As far as how much trouble it'd be to do the swap, I wouldn't know. As for what years, anything 93-96 will work. If it's a 96 though, make sure it's a the 3.4 and not the 3.8. 96 California Camaros came with the 3.8 to meet emissions and the 3.8 is a 90 degree angled V instead of a 60 degree like the 3.4s.

 

95 was the 3.8 cali cars. All 96s are 3.8s or lt1

 

You're right. Not sure why I was thinking 96 was starting for 3.8s.

 

you will need the wiring harness under hood and maybe under dash. you will also need the computer for a 5 speed. it is a major job to switch the trans type or motor type in the 4th gen camaro.

 

Plus trying to find a tranny to fit the 3.4 isn't very easy. There's a few differences in the tranny between 3.4 and 3.8 that makes them engine speciffic.

 

damn that bad news for me, b/c i wanted to swap my 01's auto to a manual, i dont want to buy another car because ive put so much time and money into this one

 

thanks got the car today bought it as not running because when u switch the key it dont do anything when i got home i switched it all the way back then back to run and it started right up anyone ever had this happen looks like it might need a new ignition switch but it starts right up now every time

 

You'll be fine as there's alot of 3.8 trannys out there. Ita just the 3.4 that is impossible to find a tranny for.

 

wow, sounds like you got a deal. How much did you give for the car? If you don't mind me asking.
