So, whether you are heading out to check out a "For Sale" ad that could be your next project or trying to make heads or tails of a junkyard find, the following charts can be useful guides when it comes to GM transmission identification. The easiest method of GM automatic transmission identification is to examine the transmission pan.
New transmission designs came with new, unique pan shapes, and the general shape of the pan often paints a fairly clear picture of which automatic transmission you are dealing with. Once you identify the pan, count the number of transmission pan bolts for confirmation.
Here's a quick overview of the first model year for each transmission. Although they are no longer offered on new vehicles, rebuilt and aftermarket versions are still available for each of these models. You can find replacement parts for each of these transmissions here:. As mentioned above, modern 5-speed and 6-speed manual transmissions are easy to identify, but older 4-speed transmissions have more variety.
While there are no distinctive pans and bolt counts to make transmission identification simple, 4-speed manual transmissions can be generally identified by examining the side profile.
The shape of the main housing will give a reasonably reliable indication of the transmission group to which your gearbox belongs. Unfortunately, this makes transmission identification difficult to accomplish while the gearbox is installed in the vehicle. Here are reference images of the three most common 4-speed manual transmissions: Muncie, Saginaw, and Borg-Warner.
