I was wondering would it be worth the money to swich to a manual transmission or am i better off putting the money towards a aode rebuild with stall converter and shift kit.Thanks for any help.




what price range would i be looking at if i change from a aode to a manual?

build your auto and put in a stall or sell your car and buy a stick. I just see it as too much work and money but im sure some people love that challenge.

i changed mine over too. it is a very easy swap. i did it with no prior experience and just basic hand tools. if you decide to go that route and need any help, just let me know. i recently posted a full list of aftermarket tranny swap parts in another thread.....

Nothing about what you can do to an auto trans matters if you really want a stick trans.

It really is a decision that only you can make.

As for the LT's, I'm not sure but I think the auto trans is larger in size and if that is so, it seems to me that a smaller trans would work.

I don't guess I understand about the gears as I don't see any in your sig.
