Do these F40 transmissions from the Opel insignia fit a cobalt ss supercharged?

Yes they fit. You have to get the proper transmission and then the conversion kit from zzp. Plus a new clutch and flywheel

The zzp kit comes with everything needed and that's if they have it available I've been waiting for mine for more than 2 months

He only had the transmission. To get it to work you need to get the zzp kit for the 6 speed conversion

You'd have to message him, but I think he was asking $600 plus shipping.

Edit: Like Ecaulk just said, you would need the conversion kit, which is gonna set you back a couple grand on top of the cost of the tranny.

I may be wrong but I thought the ZZP kit came with selections for the clutch.

It comes with the standard F40 clutch according to their website, with the option to upgrade to their race clutch kit.

I really contemplated getting the f40 when my trans went but I couldn't justify spending 2g just for the "kit" Also I heard that certain f40s don't come with LSD?

Yeah not all come with lsd or to be honest I think none come with it or might not have the best gearing with lsd, but you could buy one. I have the f40 on my Saab and it's a really nice transmission
