Guest Skiddy Posted March 28, 2003 Share Posted March 28, 2003 I was looking at some firstgen Z cars for sale in my neighborhood, and I noticed a few v8 z's for sale. One with an LT-1 motor said it had a 700r4 transmission, but did not say wether it was auto or manual. Due to my general lack of knowledge concerning GM transmissions/drivetrains, I was curious if it this 700r4 was exclusivley automatic or manual, or if it could be either....I hope its a manual... and if not, how pricey is a tranny swap typically...? thanks in advanced Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim240z Posted March 28, 2003 Share Posted March 28, 2003 Auto. Although, if it's an LT1, then likely it's a 4L60E (the electronic version of the 700R4). Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted March 28, 2003 Share Posted March 28, 2003 The 700R4 is a four-speed automatic. The last gear is an overdrive gear. As for GM, the powerglide, TH350, TH400, 700R4 and 200R4 are their main automatic transmissions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Skiddy Posted March 28, 2003 Share Posted March 28, 2003 Thanks for the info. Typically how much does it cost to replace an auto trans. w/ a standard on a chevy lt-1? ive always been preferable to shifting manually Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest zfan Posted March 28, 2003 Share Posted March 28, 2003 2k to 3k depending on your skills at installing and haggling prices. Maybe cheaper? Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
