Here we go I have been doing some thinking. The early 90s Lumina Z34s with the LQ1 have standard 5speed transmissions, and are technically w-body cars, so if its possible with lots of time and money to put that transmission in a 96 Monte z34. lets get some feedback on this im going to do some research.

hmm, other than wiring, and being obd-1, and cutting a new hole in the floor, it seems like it could work. the only issue i foresee is that everyone with the l67 and half a brain will want one, and idk enough about that tranny to know if it can take that.

It's possible, but there is a LOT of work to be done.

Ok if it does happend and you can prove it with pics and videos, I will personally paypal you $50. That is how confident I am.

And by happend I mean it has to be running and working properly.
