in that case, i'll agree. about the only time i see GM manual transaxles break is when the fiero guys hook it up to a SBC/LS motor. one of my dad's old friends has one with a 327...Originally posted by torq455 View PostComment

trust me it blows my mind.... he can't even go WOT until 3rd gear or else the tranny case cracks... and when he does, he still can't get traction.Originally posted by torq455 View Post
i wouldn't want a TPI 350 in there... WAY too much torque in the bottom, tranny pieces everywhere even when you're not beating on it...Comment

They hold up well, it's the Isuzu trannies that break fairly easy. If you start with a good Getrag and don't abuse it they'll last behind a 350. The 4 speed Muncie is touted as stronger than the 5 speed though.Originally posted by robertisaar View PostComment

282's are wicked strong..... there's a number of guys running 300-350+ hp/tq numbers through them in J's at least. i broke one, but all i did was shatter the 3-4 shift fork, i didn't actually explode it liek crazy torque would.
there was a guy over on v6 who just busted 11's in his 3400 turbo Z, and he's been running 12's through the same tranny for like 2-3 years.

yeah, Curtis with his turbo Z has DOT slicks and solid mounts with between 400-450 hp! he ended up cracking the case, but the internals were fine. lolAndy

that's not Curtis he's talking aboutOriginally posted by torq455 View Post
Curtis's Z was downgraded and i think sold, the engine might be going into a MG one of these days.
I forget his username on V6 but there was another guy with a welded diff in a '282 that was almost in the 10's with a boosted 3800.Comment

i know he wasn't talking about Curtis. yeah, he took the old 3.1 out and rebuilt another stock 3.1 turbo. though, the short block he's selling. he must have sold the car recently.Andy

I wonder about the Saab 9-3 transmission. They use a 2.8 liter 60 degree V6 with a 6 speed manual.
