transmission for my camaro??? where?

[turbomaxx]

hey guys, i know this is an accord forum, but alot of people have an extensive knowledge of MANY cars, not just accords.

so i was just wondering if anyone knew where i could find a 5 speed transmission for my camaro? im searching around ebay right now to no avail, and andysautosport was useless.


id prefer to stay away from junkyards.

TIA.

just something 5 speed that will bolt up to that 305. year one has some stuff.

Ah, gotcha. Honestly couldn't tell ya then. Maybe a salvage yard that tears down the car and you just ask for the part, and they get it for you?

i havent decided yet. the paint came out magnificant, so id like to keep it. just dont know yet. $2,500 is alot of money that i want to have, but i really like my camaro. im probably going to keep it, ESPECIALLY if i can find a manual trans to put in it

Camarobirds are a dime a dozen. Not sure if the 5 speeds from the V6s would bolt up or not, but if so, that increases your options considerably.

Junkyards really are the best... or find a parts car. Otherwise, you're going to have to buy all the parts separately anyway.



Or, just build the auto. If you go to the drag strip, you'll see that a LOT of those domestic V8s are automatic. Depending on the application, an auto can actually be faster than a manual. Of course, if you want manual just for the fun of driving a manual, then that makes sense as well.

yeah most drag cars are auto bc automatics dont miss gears. but i want the fun of shifting again. i miss it so bad.
