well if i decide against the auto to manual swap (doubtful) i might just take u up on that tranny. where you located and how much?

 

The auto transmissions had a few changes, and the manuals had a few changes, over the years. The rub comes in when you need a harness and computer, with associated other sensors for a different-year auto, but a different-year (even from a different series of car platform) manual will bolt right on with only minor mechanical modifications (mounts, clutch, etc)
