so i got an auto tranny and a manul tranny. my car came with the auto but i have the t56 from my old camaro and i dont know what i want to put in. help

 

do you have any experience with doing a trans swap? it can be difficult to do. do you have the right tools/shop? what condition is your stock tranny in? how many miles, etc. daily driver? also, how many miles on the t56.

 

you have THE WHOLE transmission from your other car? meaning literally everything it took to make that car a 6 speed?

 

well its got 113 on the t56 i have the peddels and i hsould have to much trouble putting it in. it would be a fun little project. but ill need a new driveline new hydralic lines, a clutch, throw out bearing and tranny cross member

 

well i guess if you are willing to take some time and money to do it, then do it! it will be worth it in the end if you do it right

 

I agree. If you have what you need and a desire to do it, then get on it!

 

haha damn i just dont know what to do o well i guess will see when i get to that point

 

Someone told me the clutch in the 6 speeds can't take the torque for too long, especially if you miss a gear. So I'd be better off with an automatic. I actually listened to him and went with an automatic.

ATM, had to make a choice between a 6 speed LS1 and a automatic LT1. Going with the LT1 saved me 1500 bucks, but gave me a whole lotta trouble.

 

Good luck on the swap, honestly if you don't even know where to start this may not be a project you want to take on (unless you have a good amount of time). Make sure you have a tranny jack so you don't drop the transmission and crush yourself. Other than that, good luck on finding all the parts etc. I would start by pulling the auto

 

the tranny and motor are already out of the car casue im building the motor right now. and i got time i just dont know what i want. plus it would be a fun experiance if i dont **** it up ha ha
