Dirty Rockstar Posted March 31, 2005 Report Posted March 31, 2005 Kinda odd.. Now.. I can most likely get a cavalier parts car with a 5 speed.. I am not sure of the engine in it.. But I am betting it is the 4 banger.. (No 3.1MPFI badges).. Now, I think these got the 2.2/3 QUAD 4, which measns a different bell housing.. But I want to know is: 1) Was the QUAD transmission a 282? 2) Can the bell housings be swapped out? Just want to know.. THe only thing I want from the car is the 5 speed.. Thanks! Quote
White93z34 Posted March 31, 2005 Report Posted March 31, 2005 most likely a 282. no the bellhouseings are cast as part of the tranny caseing. so the 4 banger trans would be right out for a v6. Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted March 31, 2005 Report Posted March 31, 2005 I agree, I dont think it would work. Quote
94CutlassSLCoupe Posted March 31, 2005 Report Posted March 31, 2005 why was i thinking the bellhousings were all the same??? starters are in the same location and they *look* the same to me. I would measure them Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted March 31, 2005 Report Posted March 31, 2005 ive got a 5 speed you can have... Quote
slick Posted March 31, 2005 Report Posted March 31, 2005 Nope, the 2.3's have different bellhousing's than the 60*'s. You could possibly make a plate for it to work, but you would be better off finding the correct tranny for your application. Quote
94CutlassSLCoupe Posted March 31, 2005 Report Posted March 31, 2005 a cavy would probably have a 2.2L OHV engine with the isuzu transaxle anyhow...I think it would have to be an "N" body to have a 2.3 Quad 4 Quote
JoroCorona Posted March 31, 2005 Report Posted March 31, 2005 What year? If its the 2.4 TC it might work with an adapter plate. However, in Neptune, NJ I've found a pair of Z34 5-speeds with nuked motors, but alright trannies. Maybe I cound sell ya one of the two? These trannies are 284s Quote
Canada Posted April 1, 2005 Report Posted April 1, 2005 If I remember right, the bellhousings ARE interchangeable. I gather the front case half can be swapped out if you are careful. I KNOW a guy on Berettastuff has done this (he has 92+ Q4 gears in his 3X00 Hybrid Cavalier that runs like 13.9). But this is a moot point anyway..........the Cavalier will have an Isuzu trans if it has a 2.0/2.2/2200/2.3/2.4. The Isuzu trans might just bolt up, but it certainly won't like the torque of a V6.........and while the bellhousing might match, I don't know about otyher stuff (mounts etc). They only got the 282 with the older V6 2.8/3.1's and the gears are a little long for W-Body's with their tall ass tires. Quote
