because the teams that were road racing these cars were hollering about the rpm drop going into 5th gear so GM added it to these cars when ordered. There were also magazine's that covered this change back then. As far as cost to do this change, I did get a few labor quotes but they were all over the place depending on who you called....as low as $250 all the way up to 2k plus parts.. and these were from some of the well known manual experts on line that we all can find, plus $250 plus to ship the trans somewhere, thats when I decided to just go for it and start rounding tools etc up. Price gets up there to high you may as well just get a new MG9 trans for a ZL1 and with a discount last I looked they were about 3200.... Hope this helps and good luck |

Im only an hour away from RPM and figured this was easy for me but after several attempts with these guys I found out they didn't want to talk to me unless I was buying one of there upgrades packages with just an exchange trans, would not sell me parts ect... I did not want to give up my trans.. They seem to have a known good reputation but I didn't have much luck with them, may not be the case with others IDK. Rockland Standard Gear was happy to sell me tremec parts at a far price and ship them in a timely matter. |
