welcome to the forums.

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

check with your local junk yards

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?

you need to computer from a manual V6 too, plus the clutch, flywheel, cables, possibly the shifter, 5 spd itself.....prolly more....those are just what i can think of off the top of my head.....yur prolly looking at a 2k swap.

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.
