A 96 sunfire gt 5 speed. for $200 bucks. The engine 2.4 has been pulled because it threw a rod. My plans are to transplant an ecotec mated to a 5 speed tranny. I know this question has been asked before but please help me out will an what manual transmission will bolt up to the ecotec and will it bolt up to the mounts on the car. Im planing on dropping a 03 ecotec. Thanks from a new houston Jbody owner.

You'll need a getrag tranny and it wont just bolt up. Need to weld new tranny mounts in. Also will need to replace the wiring harness, ECU, and other things. Check out the third gen forum for more info.
Good luck

If your looking for a tranny I'm selling a brand new getrag 5speed but I'm not sure if it will bolt up will a 2.4l getrag bolt up to a 2.2l eco? I know the trans is pretty much the same but I dont know if the bell housing is different. If it will fit pm me for a price.

If you are still thinking about the Eco swap, I strongly suggest getting a donor car with everything you need still in tact. Talk to John Higgins and Robert G of Jacksonville. They have done a few eco swaps now.
