One quick question. My friend is interested in doing this swap. Trying to save money he is wonder if he got the auto tranny would it fit on his 96 camaro with manual tranny. What and how much work would be needed. I know swap is possible the main concern is the tranny would he need anything extra.

It will fit in the tunnel. Bolt pattern to the engine is the same. Driveshaft is the same. Torque arm is the same. Exhaust hanger bracket might be different.
He just needs the accompanying parts. Console, shifter, crossmember. Maybe big pedal for the brake.\'98 A4 Camaro v6->v8 conversion, and STS kit next<br />v6: 13.6 Powerdyne, 13.2 150 shot, 13.8 120 shot, 14.3 85 shot, 15.7 stock<br />v8(na): 12.18@113, 392rwhp<br />Moderator on <a href=\"http://www.mtfba.org\" target=\"_blank\">www.mtfba.org</a> and <a href=\"http://www.frrax.com\" target=\"_blank\">www.frrax.com</a> (Road Race & Autocross)<br /><a href=\"http://community.webshots.com/user/johnduncan10\" target=\"_blank\">Car pics</a>, <a href=\"http://www.trscca.com\" target=\"_blank\">TN Region SCCA</a>Comment

Oh yeah, and one biggie, a pcm and harness for an automatic. Since there's that gob of wires that go to the tranny to control shift points, line pressure, etc...\'98 A4 Camaro v6->v8 conversion, and STS kit next<br />v6: 13.6 Powerdyne, 13.2 150 shot, 13.8 120 shot, 14.3 85 shot, 15.7 stock<br />v8(na): 12.18@113, 392rwhp<br />Moderator on <a href=\"http://www.mtfba.org\" target=\"_blank\">www.mtfba.org</a> and <a href=\"http://www.frrax.com\" target=\"_blank\">www.frrax.com</a> (Road Race & Autocross)<br /><a href=\"http://community.webshots.com/user/johnduncan10\" target=\"_blank\">Car pics</a>, <a href=\"http://www.trscca.com\" target=\"_blank\">TN Region SCCA</a>Comment
