Re: V8 + 5-speed manual, anytime soon, if ever?
The following chnages were made on the Aisin AR-5 manual tranny for the move from 3.5 to 3.7. I agree with the above post that this 5-speed is probably at its limit.
CLUTCH MADE LARGER FOR HUMMER H3 APPLICATION To handle the increased power and torque from the new 3.7L I5 in the Hummer H3, the clutch was increased in diameter from 265mm to 280mm. 2ND AND 3RD GEAR SYNCHRONIZERS CHANGED TO CARBON ON H3 APPLICATION The friction material on the synchronizers for the 2nd and 3rd gear blocker rings are changed from brass to carbon, which is a more durable and heat-resistant material. This allows the transmission to handle the increased torque of the new 3.7L I5 in the H3. |

V8 5spd is unlikely at best. IMO.

No manual tranny was one of the reasons I didn't buy the Alpha, along with no option to buy it without all that chrome! I don't mind the I5 maybe I am getting old!:rolleyes:
