i will prob do this down the line also if i keep the car that long. there comes a point when the power is too difficult to get to the ground with the manual. first and second are usless for me and by the time im in 3rd im beat

yea it honestly just got to fast for the 5 speed, and really dont want to start going thru clutches and breaking trannys..

BTW i got everything for $1650.00!! the converter alone is $1000 bucks from PTC:nice:
 
You will enjoy the auto with the trans brake. A buddy of mine use to have a big block nova with a glide w/ a trans brake. He had 325/50/15 mickey thompson drag radials out back and we would take it out for some spirited driving against others. Needless to say, it was a blast on the brake.
