hey guys i really need help on a 5speed swap, i have a 2004 chevy cavalier, and it has the ecotec 2.2, and its automatic, i need help on how to swap it to manual, what transmission do i need? where do i buy it from? what all has to be done to complete the swap without an engine light? and whatever else needed, i would greatly appreciate it soo much, thanx guys.....
i THINK its the F23 Getrag 5spd is what you need. but i KNOW for sure its a getrag, just has to be for the ecotec.
junk yard, ebay, you pull it's, classifieds on here, or gm dealership is where you can get one.
Getrag rear trans mount to frame
TTR front trans mount to frame
Cut your auto trans mount off the frame
Shift cables from 00+
Shifter assembly 00+
Getrag F23 transmission
New drive shafts for 5 speed
5 speed engine harness and match your stock options ( abs, cruise, a/c) I had a hard time finding one for mine
pcm for a 5 speed
Clutch pedal assembly
Brake and gas pedal assembly for 5 speed
Clutch start safety switch ( splice into YELLOW wire coming from ignition switch on dash harness and before the connection with the engine harness)
Thats about it.

For the connector on the clutch pedal, yellow wire to ignition, purple wire to starter I believe... someone correct me if i am wrong.
