I'm considering transplanting a 92 camaro 5 spd with the hydraulic clutch into my 1980 Cabalerro. Currently I'm running a warmed over 400 sb in front of a stock turbo 350.
Anyone have any tips , comments or concerns?


Thanks,
Tony

There's been lots of discussion about the install including potential problems with bell housing, shifter clearance of the seat, and fitting the hump to mention a few. Check out the Transmission and Drive Train Forum for more info. Did a 3 to 4 spd swap last year myself. http://elcaminocentral.com/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=7143
:D

Just remembered another site that may be helpful.

I know that the 6 speed from an lt1 will not work with anything other than an lt1 but I am not certain about the five speed.

look at www.montecarloss.com or www.maliburacing.com for infromation on manual transmission swaps
