Yes you can several of our customers are doing it. You will have to figure out some way to work lockup. There are lockup kits like are used with the 700r4 I am sure could be adapted and then some just use a toggle switch for that.

You can buy a complete valve body or you could buy the transgo full manual valve body kit an install it yourself.

No you would have to shift every gear just like a manual just minus the clutch
