Default How hard is it to swap a trans.

I was wondering how hard it will be to put a Y8 trans on my Y5 motor. Please give me as many details as possible. Thanks

i think its bolt off, bolt on. i'm about to change my tranny to a y8 tranny, and probably put my z6 tranny on my soon to be mini-me engine project.

all the details you need:a shop manual.
no different than taking off your stock tranny and putting it back on.

It isn't that hard but be careful. Make sure you have something to hold the engine and either have a trannie jack or have a strong friend under it like I did so the trannie can fall on him. j/k
