6sp for 2010
#5
I thought some of the other LNF powered cars came with a 6. Upon further review I see that was incorrect. So why does the upgrade kit for the HHR SS only yield 315 ft-lbs of torque, while it's higher in the others?

Notice anything fishy about the 6 speed?

With the money problems and the idea that I don't think it will fit with out a lot of mods. GM would have put it in already if it was right for the engine, cheap or easy.
I do know the Auto 6 sp will not fit and to make it fit the pan needs to be modified. To modify the pan it would take a lot of work and testing to meet goverment standards.
I hope they suprise me but with money being tight I don't expect GM to invest too much into the HHR over the next couple years.
I have not driven a 6 SO manual FWD yet but my moms Malibu V6 has a great 6 sp auto. It is as smooth as glass and the paddle shifter work great.
Chevy needs the money Volt, Cruze and other new models they are already bringing out.
With money tight and a Orlando coming I wonder if they will even consider a new HHR.
GM already has too many models and we will soon hear how many will be cut this coming week.
