It appears, the 2.2/2.5TD Omega's have R28 gearbox's, this makes it a lot easier as the 3.0 manual's are rare and the 3.2 are even more rare again.

Hi I'm aware that Omega's did have manual gearbox's. The 3.2 with a manual was only an option for the Police, I'm not sure if it's safe to put a 2.5/2.6 or 3.0 litre engine Omega gearbox in a 3.2. I have heard the Cavalier 2.5 V6 gearbox would work but I'm again unsure. Any idea what gearbox to put in? or, will the V6 gearbox work in my car


Thanks Alex

Hi guys, I had a crazy idea to convert my 3.2 Omega from an auto to a manual. I've been looking at gearbox's out of the Saab's and Vectra's. I know the F40, M32 can handle the torque of the engine  I am also aware the gearbox from the Lotus Carlton (ZF S6-40 ) can easily deal with the torque but the ZF S6-40 are far more expensive and rare over the other gearbox's  however, I am unsure if it is possible to fit these gearbox's in an omega. Hope someone can help. Also, has anyone done this?


Many thanks Alex
