ok guys...i have a 97 honda civic ex. The problem is that my tranny...has really bad bearings so i need to replace asap. I searched around and found a z6 tranny for sale...however...i know that the z6 and y8 tranny are interchangeable on the motor; howver im not 100% sure if it'll bolt right up to my chassis...any input is appreciated

 

yes it will bolt right up no prob

yup both trannies are exactly the same except the y8 one has a stronger shift fork.

 

Even the tranny mounts are all the same? Doing the same thing next weekend.

thanks u guys for the input..i guess out with the y8 and in with the z6

 

the trannys ARE different internally, but bolt patterns are the same.

One bolt for the flywheel cover won't line up, the the block stiffener does the job.

 

wats the block stiffener???
