Hgt said it does. Since he's the most knowledgeable member on the forum, I trust him.

For proof of you stating an F23 with LSD, not trolling. So we're asking for proof of said option, so for proof of different F35 part numbers with the LSD or non-LSD option. Here is the F35 w/o lsd part number: 55564935 and with LSD: 19330522 (<that one is a re-man unit, the original was 55564936).

Again you cannot order from the factory a LNF or LSJ cobalt with a F23 with or without a LSD.

Why don't you prove how you could order a LNF with a F23.

That's what my sticker says too. Not sure why that's proof.

I'm also not sure why you're so adamant here. You said "correct me if I'm wrong" and they did. Is someone looking for an F23 with LSD? Why are we caring so much.

Once my F35 breaks I'm not putting a F35 back in, so if it was a GM installed on the F23 that would save me a lot of time and money in the long run.

You're the one I'm talking about, why are you so adamant? Just accept there wasn't a factory F23 with LSD and move on.

Yes true but you established long ago it wasn't, but is available frankenstein, and no one's doing that here. We should be talking baseball in the workchat.

Oh yeah it's a total frankenstein step, but the F23 is better than a F35 from a find a replacement. Not to mention a dime a dozen, and a factory installed LSD would be cheaper than buying a new one from Qualfie or going with a Team Green insert that is kinda an LSD.

Hey guys, did you know that you could order a Cobalt with and LS3? Don't try and look though because GM doesn't have any part numbers or rpo codes indicating anything to prove my wild statement.

Is it drop-in? And stronger than F35? I ask because I thought the 23 and 35 were the torque ratings for the transmissions. Would the Qualfe from an F35 G85 mate to an F23 relatively easily? Also asking for future reference just in case.

Fairly certain that is a no for the F35 LSD working in a F23. There are a few big power folks running the F23s and the J-body guys have some big power with the F23, so the claimed torque ratings aren't necessarily true.

It's not a drop in, you need axles, shifter, mounts, flywheel, clutch. But when you're looking at 3-5k for a new or rebuilt F35 it suddenly becomes comparable. Then the next time the tranmission ***** the bed it's just a trip to the junkyard since the F23 was in so damn many cars compared to the F35.

Yeah, a rating isn't necessarily capability. Good to know, thanks.

My understanding from members here was the F23 was a much better transmission.
