i have a 79camaro 350 small block and i want to put a 5 speed in....how do i do this....what parts do i need

Thats a pretty open-ended question.

Converted a 73 last spring.

Most of the vendors offer a kit to convert. Clutch pedal rod, bellcrank, clutch linkage, brackets, return spring. Had to buy a set of used pedals. For the trans crossmember, that will depend on which trans you are going to use, and if there is one available or if you have to modify one.

so your saying i could go to a store and buy a kit to convert, hmm i thought i might have to get another camaro and use it as a donate car

We bought a conversion kit from a local dealer, probably the same that can be bought from most resto vendors.

The only thing we had to get used was the pedals. Might be available now, not sure.

thank you, i have joined 3 camaro fourms in the past few days and you guys have been the only ones that have helped me

Call our site sponsor, classic chevy 5 speed, I'll bet they can fix you up!

OH NO... the 666 Car... :yes: or was that a 70?

Tremec is the straight shot to go for a everything, they sell the clutch assembly and everything you need there. I believe its classicchevy5speed.com Check it out

wow i saw the chevy 5 speed site ... $3000+ for that conversion kit..

I just conveted my 78 Z28 to a five speed and i love it. i spent a total of a wopping $800.00. Go to SS396.com and get the whole linkage kit which is about $250, buy a new flywheel and clutch and a used 5-speed from a 3rd gen camaro and an older style bellhousing and your good to go...
