could an ls manual transmission be mated with a regular d-series engine?


reason i ask is because the tranny on my car is going.... well its gone, and since my car has a warranty on it, i thought i could take the warranty money and buy an ls tranny instead, so in a couple months i could buy the ls engine to go with it, and have a zippy lil car

this is an honest question, i've searched and havn't seen anything on it, especially since there isn't any benefit to it, its just a conveniance thing for me

not possible

the simplist reason being a b series transmition wont fit on a d series engine and vice versa

thanks.... that was all i needed to know

you could still pick it up and keep it in storage or something... a d series tranny can be had for like $100... i was giving my old one away and nobody wanted it so i just took it to the dump...


but spend a little more and get a gsr tranny for the ls engine... it'll be more peppy

o0o, ic
im getting 1000$ from my warranty company, thats the max they give per claim, how much can i get the gsr tranny for?

spracingsports

with $1000 couldnt you get a typeR LSD tranny??

punkindrublic

doubtful... but you could get a gsr tranny for less then $1000... mint ones go for like 750 i think?

excellent

i really want a strong low mileage setup, something thats very reliable, and peppy, the ls engine should do me very well

The engine may be peppy but an LS tranny is not peppy at all.
