Hell, man, save some money and slap a T56 in that mug. It should fit. And they're great transmissions.

 

a T56...in a cavalier ?? HAVE U LOST YOUR MIND ?? the tranny's as big as the whole car. haha.

 

lol, yea, and convert it to RWD while I'm at it, right? I'd rather just buy an LS1 F-body, or an LS2 Goat and spend less with better results. J-bodies have their place in this world, and while I haven't completely sworn them off, I'm pretty sure there will be none gracing my garage floor for quite awile, lol. I'm much happier daily driving my '65 Nova 4 door right now. Maybe now that I'm done wasting money on the Cavalier, I'll actually get the V8 swap finished on my '52 Chevy 2 door along with the straight axle swap to make a gasser out of it. So yea, I'm done playing with boys toys for now, gonna step back up to the bigger, better toys.

BTW, I could be convinced to be a truck guy after driving my buddies SVT Lightning. Moves real nice for a truck! Line locks great too!!!!!!!!
