a well-built automatic isn't a problem... They shift well, and they are durable... I've run automatics in quite a few of my older car's and never had an issue with them....

They are nice to drive in traffic, as you don't have to shift all the time....

the MAJOR downside... is IF you enjoy shifting and going through the gears.... well, then the automatic is kind of boring...

Although, to be honest, I haven't looked at how much stuff is available to beef up a stock auto in a v6 mustang... I know there are valve bodies and shift kits, along with a few torque converters though....

its not worth paying for the swap. either buy a manual and sell yours or stick with auto
