The v6 trans is the same trans as the V8's got with the exception of the bolt patterns on the bell housing.

Manual gear - it's a completely different model, handles different torques and is 6 speed, where as the 3.4l was a 5-speed.

the t5 only holds up to around 225ftlb of torque IIRC, while the v6's put out about 215

Ill be honest. Why pay for a car, and then pay 15K to make it a V8, when in the first place there are V8 Fbodies out there that you could of bought for less then that? you could of bought a LS1 Camaro or Firebird in excellent condition for 8-10K with mods already done to it, and had 4-7K left over for other mods. No offense, but you need to learn how to manage your money and your ideas a little better.
