a dealership wont pay for a conversion, or do one for that matter. Even if its under warranty, they will put in another automatic tranny or rebuild the old one.

everyone with auto tranny should have an oil cooler. and in hot weather when you're sitting at a light, put it to neutral until you're ready to drive.

It means that before going to another gear you need to shift to neutral first, then depress clutch, then press it again and the go to the desired gear.
This what semi-truck drivers do with all gears, if I'm not mistaking.
It is next o impossible to engage a gear smothly if at all if the gear has no syncromesh (syncromesh make shure that teeth on the gears lined up, so shift engages fast and smooth)
