Yous Guys Opinion as many of you know the trans am is broken and i have a new car to drive around. before the trans am broke i planned on saving up all summer and buying my new car at the end of summer but the plan changed obviously.
so on to the issue at hand. by the end of summer i'll have about 5-6K saved up. the question is, should i go ahead and fix the trans am or pay off the focus early?
another question is how much would i be expecting to pay for a th400 swap?

You now have a daily driver. The T/A is paid off and you won't get jack if you sell a dead car.
You need to fix it anyway. Once it's fixed you won't want to sell it. You'll then have a daily driver and a "weekend toy."
Forget th-400 -- think T56.

the TH-400 isnt that bad to do on those cars... I can always give you the number to my uncle's tranny shop in Augusta, GA. They specialize in automatics. They built the TH350 in my old camaro very cheap.
