Ok so I have paid for the following parts, I will be picking them up on Friday.

axels, console, shifter, pedals, shift cables, clutch master cylinder

It took me forever to find a yard that had these parts, I guess 5 speed grand am's/ Alero's are extremely hard to come by?

I'm currently doing this as well. I do have a second car to drive in the time that it's down. Just trying to locate all the parts right now. me and a friend are going to be working on it. He's a GM small car guru, and his brother will be welding in the mounts.

What transmission are you using where you have to weld in mounts?

I know, old post, but I have a question. What about the getrag trannys that were on the early 90's V6 cavaliers? Would they bolt up to our 3400's? I think that was before GM started making all their engines in a "family" format, to be swapp-able with multiple trannys and whatnot.

as long as you get the v6 bell housing it will bolt right up to the motor......

To generalize, basically the same bellhousing pattern was used on most FWD engines aside from the SOHC/DOHC 4-cylinders.

Basically anything FWD from 87-94 that has a V6, Quad4 (maybe only HO or better), or Turbo 2.0. However, the V6 ones are the ones that will bolt up to a 3400. The others do have some advantages if you want parts for more aggressive gears though. Somewhere during 1991 (limited production) and for 1992+, all the HO Quads had the 3.94 ratio. Some people want this, but for a 3400 unless you have some crazy tires you're just going to go up in smoke all the time. I can already break traction on GoodYear Eagle F1s from a roll with my basically stock 3400.

The 3.4 DOHC cars have a Getrag 284 which is a bit beefed up. But it's harder to service and uses a more expensive pull-type clutch.

Not really. Finding a manual trans to bolt up to the 3400 is easy as pie!

*bump*

Anyone made any progress on this project? Looks like some guys had this in the works, or at least wanted to. Would be nice to see it done and working.

I forgot all about this thread, however I sold off the 5 speed parts and picked up the 4T65e-HD trans, axles, wiring harness, side mount and PCM code from the GXP Concept Car. I should be working on it sometime this summer as the parts are sitting in my garage along with a second 2000 GAGT. I just need to fab up the front and rear mount as they were already gone
