I want to swap in an auto, but it needs to be an overdrive 4L60 or 80? I don't want to have to swap out the computor or harness so I am trying to find out if I can use a full manual VB and a manual switch to lock up the convertor. Any opinions?/ideas?

It's not to bad, takes about an hour and a half. - do that part after the M6 is out. You're goign to have a hole where the shifter was at and where the clutch was. You can just weld up plates there from the inside of the car if you're careful. I'm sure you can use a manual vb, and manual lock up switch, but i dont know who makes them etc. Personal advice, sell your tranny out right and buy another outright unless its from a friend. Otherwise, it will cost you extra...

You may beable to get away with it though.

Nothing is set in stone yet, other than the place building it, which is Dominant Motorsports.
