Ugh. Good question. My hipshot says swap to a mani trans, but that's the lazy way out of answering your question and not feasible in most cases.

I don't know but off the top of my head I would get motor mount inserts and an engine stiffy to keep the lump steady when its boosted or bottle fed. Other than that, I really don't know. Hope that helps and I'm sure someone here will pipe up who's had experience with that set-up.

Re: cant believe im asking this.. but i dont know

there are a few tranny "build-up" kits for the auto, but not many.

http://www.lonestarracing.com/cgi-bi...CI-559100.html

this is one that i heard about in a different post on the forum.

it was dopes6070 in the post "auto transmission".

You need to get TCI racing master overhaul kit and torque converter, the kit comes with the clutch upgrade.
