zeitgeist57 Posted November 7, 2011 Report Share Posted November 7, 2011 Not T-top and a stick shift, but I like it...these are quickly gaining some respect as a soon-to-be "classic" Camaro. Makes me feel old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2loNslo Posted November 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2011 How hard is it to conver these to a 5 speed? I heard you could use the pedal assembly out of any camaro 82 to 02 is that correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would go over to camaroz28.com or some sort of 3rd gen website for info like that. If it were me, that car would get at least a gen 1 small block chevy. If you want to do it right, LSX that whore. The only way to make a 305 go fast is toss it off a cliff, that is just science. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjrsplat Posted November 7, 2011 Report Share Posted November 7, 2011 If you're planning on doing a manual trans swap, pull the engine and trans together, it will save you headaches. also, I'd consider swapping to 350 while you're at it, the 305 is best suited as a boat anchor.

Cordell Posted November 7, 2011 Report Share Posted November 7, 2011 Those 305 3rd gens are much slower then 3400 V6 4th gens. Engine swap is the only way to make it fast. I wouldn't go through the hassle of converting to a manual, if you want a maual go by a manual car. Sticking a 4th gen drivetrain in there would be the way to go, its easy enough, but it would be cheaper to buy a better car if you want to go fast. LOL at the murderer comment.

Mattsv8 Posted November 7, 2011 Report Share Posted November 7, 2011 awsome i wana get mine going so damn bad i was thinking of pulling the engine in the s10 and building the camaro for next yr, so much more room and the ablility to have a 7.50 cert with ease and still get in. plus i could run a small tire. with my spohn tq arm or 4link it. but the smaller tire fits in more classes. id say swap in a healty 350, and either beef up the 700r4 with 4l60e internals, or go th400. if its your driver id say keep the od and enjoy the lil better mileage. the pedals are the same for all 82-02 and easy swap, t56s are common if u use the pre 97 lt1 style has the ablility to bolt to any 1gen sbc with a simple flywheel change. go register at http://www.thirdgen.org and read up tons of info. also check ls1tech.com for any swap ideas with ls engines. most off build a bad ass car and make the haters jelous. everytime someone says 3rd gen the mullet is brought up. u wont here those coments when its a bad ass ride. good luck with the build if you need any parts i have engines and trannys.
