I have friends who are capable of changing the tranny to a manual for ne next summer. i just need to pay for tranny and 100 to each of them. I will also get to help and learn what I can while they do it. Would this be worth it. would get tranny from junkyard.
2001 cavalier 2 door. 2.2L engine. 100,000 miles

You would have to get the tranny, clutch, pedal assembly and linkage or lines depending if mechanical or hydraulic clutch. Then you might need the computer and/or tranny harness if in 2001 they have the electronic tranny controls like new cars do.

Wouldn't be worth it in my eyes
