Tranny swap question..

[Onimacus]

I've searched a few forums about Saturn's and havn't been able to find exactly what I'm looking for.


The (i think it is) valve body seems to being going bad and Instead of getting a new one, I have been wanting to do a manual tranny swap.

My car is an 98 SL2. Which tranny do I need, and all that jazz.. just looking for a complete list of swap parts... I'm gonna wanna do the PCM too because I have a feeling I'll need the rev limiter... hehe...

mp3 tranny (manual trans out of a dohc car) preferably get one from a 96 or newer because the trans in obd1 vehicles have a hump right where the ignition module mounts.

release fork (fork inside trans housing that throw out bearing attaches to) make sure it has the clip and plastic bushing there, either with fork or trans

flywheel

clutch

clutch hydraulics, i think 93 back had a bleedable slave on it while all others were completely sealed units.

clutch pedal, brake pedal, and the rods they pivit on

dogbone mount and bracket for trans

reverse switch connector

shift cables

shifter

i swear i feel like im missing something, but i cant think since its 3:20 in the morning
