I think that was the manual on the early to mid 90's w bodies that came with the 3100 and 3400 v6's. Id be really surprised if it was rated for much more than 220 ft-lb of engine torque.

There have been a lot of old GPs with v8s put in for show and the trans wont hold. I believe gm made a show car that was a older (97-2000) v8 awd gp and the trans blew when they unloaded it, or something like that.

Always liked the exterior of those cars.

Manuals get old very quickly driving in the city traffic jambs.
