Re: Cavalier RWD conversion kits HELP

My best advice is to rethink your plan. Cavaliers aren't really show car material. Don't get me wrong, they're good cars, but if you want a show car get a Camero or Corvette. It can be done, but you have to build a frame (FWD unibody structure won't hold up to RWD), tunnel the body for the D/S, build tons of custom mounts/brackets, the work just goes on and on. I think there's a thread in "engineering/technical" about this... way too much work. Between everyone who responded, there must be a hundred major modifications... basically you're building a car from scratch because nothing is a direct (or even close) fit.

But to answer your question, no kits for this, and an S-10 drivetrain would probably be the closest fit.
