[hannibal64]

with the quad 4 5 speed.. im looking on the main page and cant figure out what trans i have... says vin W is 282 and vin x is 284.. but they dont list a 90 as a year. should i just assume that i have the 282 cause i have W in my vin?

the 284 only came with the 3.4 DOHC, so yes, you have a 282

Their are alot of variations in 282's. You have the Quad 4 version. GM used the 282 in alot of FWD applications. FWIW: The 282 was named something different, I think for 90 and up.

It is infact still called a 282 in '90. The quad4's had a different bellhousing and gearing, then the 3.1L version, which was also available in 3.1L j-bodys(cavis) but with different gearing and I've heard different output shaft splines ? The 282 and 284 were dropped as nothing that got a 5-speed had any power after about 93-94. I forget who built the 5-speeds after that but I'm pretty sure they weren't the 282/284.

I think it was New Venture gear for the Quad 4's and Isuzu for the shitty 2.2's
