ok so my uncle said i either spun the main baring or broke a rod! so im replacing the motor and im veryyyy low on money ! its an automatic ls motor! i really wanna make it manual when i buy the new motor for the car, how much do u think i will pay to do this?
how much would it cost to just replace the short block! and does anyone have one for sale! how much would it cause to turn it to manual ! my uncle can do all the work he is an acura/honda GOD! so let me know please =]

 

auto to manual swap = alot $$$$$ and a pain the ***....its way more worth it to sell ur car and get a new one...if your short on money...thats the easyest way to go

 

okay well like how much money r we talking? my uncle gave me this car for free i cant sell it lol he will get pisssed the **** off! he will do all the work but like is it really that expencive to put a manual swap in ? i can get ahold of money but im prolly going to put a new ls motor in it and keep it auto for now then save money and put a manual in it ?

 

if you're in a rush to get it running, just replace what you need to replace for now and do the auto to manual swap when you have more cash to burn, like Tegraracer90 said, VERY EXPENSIVE and a pain in the ***.

 

alright well what kinda motor should i put in ! is ls the only motor i should swap in or what? what would be cheaper ! or what kinda set up can i do to have a pretty fast automatic?

 

if you have hookups then its not $$$$, i got mine done for less than 500 bucks. i got a tranny from a friend for 100 bucks and then the Hasport mount for 140. Pedal assembly for 40 and all the little stuff i jsut went to the junkyard and toook it. But taking out and putting in pedals are a pain in the **** though. other than that its not that bad, I would strongly recommend you to take out the motor to work on it instead of leaving it the car. saves much more time.
