Never mind my reasons behind asking this, but does the cobalt F35 bolt into a Eco J?
 
 
NO, f23 is a stronger tranny 
 
 
Im not asking what tranny is stronger, im asking if it will bolt in.  I have a secret tranny swap in mind and its not the F35. 
Damnit we need a grammar check too.

I would say it would bolt on. You looking at a 6 speed saab unit?
 
 
The question you should be asking is.. 
Will a F35 FIT in my car?
(not without modifications... the case is too large....)
 
 
Lenko - Eh its the same thing i was getting at.  
If i can just figure out what would need to be done to FIT a F35 into a J, it might help me out alot.  Are the mounting points alteast close to the F23?  Pictures of the differences would be helpful if any of you have them.
Tom - Its a secert, hence im not gonna tell you.  Cuz if it doesnt work out or i cannot get the transmission i want, a "project thread" will be worthless.  If i do complete it then i will do a "how-to".  But for now its just like everything else on the org, all talk.
 
 
the F35 will bolt to the engine, but the mounting locations are completely different.  I might be able to get pics of the F35 case, along with the F23 case today (just got a call not to long ago about working on a F35 trans today).

f35 has no mounting locations any where near close for a j , plus the added size of the f35 , youll have to move your steering rack to fit the trans 
so basically if you wanna re-engineer the whole front end , it might be possible 
 
 
 
Speed - Pictures would be very helpful.  As of now i do not have access to a F35 or the trans i want.
 
 
he hasnt brought the trans over yet.....
I had some pics saved, from GM press releases..... I'll see if I can dig them up
