4 speed manual vs th350

[oldtinsmith]

Manual all the way for me. If I can't buy it that way, I convert it. So much more fun to drive, until you get stuck in mind melting traffic.

Don't I have to put a ball stud on my block. Will the 4 speed work with my hooker 2451 headers?

Check out Maliburacing.com There Is Lots Of Info On The Conversion. I Had to run Stock Manifolds With My 4 Speed Conversion, but I Know There Are Guys Running Headers With The Swap. Just Do A Search On Thier Forum. You Can Buy The Set Up From Thepartsplaceinc.com It Cost Me 309.00 Shipped For The 4 Speed Conversion Kit. You Will Need A G Body 606 Bell If You Do Indeed Do The Swap. Hope You Find The Info Your Looking For! I Havnt Been Able To Really Drive My Elky So I Cant Tell You How Fun It Is To Drive Yet, But I Cannot Wait!

I can't really comment on 4 speed vs a 350 cause I have a 5 speed...

it's a blast and when your stuck in traffic there are enough people shocked at a G body with a stick it makes it fun. I went with a Howe hydraulic throw out bearing so I don't have to worry about anything interfering with the headers..

it would be fun for sure. i dunno what i wanna do. working on getting the motor together currently then onto the trans. one thing i have heard though is that the f.a.s.t fuel injection i am interested in doesnt cooperate as well with a a stick.

 

[pontiacgp]

where did you hear that the EZ EFi does not work well with a stick?

 

[mebe007]

its was on cpg somewhere

i found this place to get most of the conversion parts needed.

Also if you went with a 3rd pedal you could run more aggressive rear gears. I think it would be badass to have 4.10s+ but not have to rev the living piss out of it above 50mph with the longer 4th gear.

What would be a price to entertain on a complete 4 speed swap minus the clutch and hump for shifter on trans tunnel. Otherwise complete
