you'll need more than just a transmission if you do the swap.

are you having a problem with your auto.....or the problem IS that its an auto. there is alot involved if you want to swap in a manual....but if yur just trying to fix your current auto, what kind of problem are you having?

first off with an auto you are gonna want 4.10 gears w/ a t-lok and a tuner. then get yourself true dual exhaust and some under drive pullies.
