Like hear from fellow owners who have gone automatic.

I recently aquired a higher milage 93, that i would like to convert from 6spd to auto. I purchased my flexplate and tail housing from our great friend Pete. He has offered to complete the conversion at a very reasonable price, as has Marc our resident specialist.

I thought it might be a fun learning oppertunity as i have built several cars up before too. So the first question i have is what stall did most of you select and why? Also what are you doing with the car and what rear gear and tire are you running? This is a slightly ported car with headers and the usual mods. Heads have yet to be ported and i might just have pete do a 391 coversion on it. Looking to do some drag racing and street driving with it. Would like to still drive it on the street and not have to worry too much about excessive slip and heat.

Next question, this may be a nitrousjunkie or goldcyclon question. I am interested in using the b&m auto shifter in the car, but wondering which one to order? I have an older quicksilver shifter from a 72 transam and i assume i might be able to swap out the quadrant for the right one.

What trans tuner did you use?

Lastly is there a header modification or case mods i should consider to making this transmission fit easier? Using a 2002 mn8 or 4l85e for the project.

Thanks.
