saab six speed
what are the years when the six speed come in the saab? will it bolt to the ecotec? will it work with stock mounts? is it any stronger than the f35 and f23 trannies? the gear ratios? does it lean more to the turbo side(higher ratio) or supercharger side(lower ratio)?

I believe there was a guy on here that was looking into that swap....but it would cost too much i guess..... IIRC it will bolt to the ecotec block but u will need new mounts, custom shifter/clutch cables, etc....lots of custom work as far as i know.....but IIRC the gears would be awsome....first is abit longer, which will help cause ares is too short...and i think 2/3 are about the same and 4/5 are abit lower, the ofcoase 6th, which would be great so when cruisin at +80mph/+130km u wont be reving to +3k
