I still have the factory 3 speed on the floor. Really love the stick but looking to potentially make the swap because i have a 700R4/OD already built and ready if i want it. transmission is free. I just am not sure what it will take to put in the car that has never had a manual transmission. Thoughts and input is greatly appreciated.

You will need a differnt trans crossmember and driveshaft. Cover the shifter hole, auto trans pedal assembly would be nice (you can sell your manual setup easily) Sell your transmission to a stock car racer easily. Unhook your clutch switch and hook it to your nuetral safety switch. Are you wanting a column shifter? If so you need an auto trans column (sell your column easily, especially if it has tilt). You should be able to do this swap and come out ahead with money to boot.
