Need a (pref) 4 or 5 Speed Manual Transmission for a '73 Camaro.

Very True. But a lot of countries !

 

Agreed! I was just being a dick for humour's sake since I don't have any actual wisdom to impart.

 

Hey I resemble that sentiment from time to time !

 

I embrace it. But i will try...

Having messed with many transmissions that I tried to make work in the past, I'd say go with something proven and solid (and fits) that you can afford. Super T-10? Then, save for what you want as a kit that will install without drama and find a way to get it to your door.

Probably more like $3K at the very least once you get the clutch shifter bellhousing flywheel too.
But that’s probably your best bet.

 

TJ,
You're not alone; lots and lots of people want to keep a budget and not go new Tremec.

Is your Toyota transmission a R150, 151, or 154? Those are a reasonably well-regarded transmission, although the ratios in the truck transmission aren't ideal for a sporting car. If you had a Supra 5 speed, I'd suggest rebuilding.

How about some more details on your project.
