Good idea to swap in a built Ecotec...tons or potential for lots of power. The Getrag will take a little work though. You have to cut off the tranny mounting points and weld on new ones. Then you have to worry about the clutch pedal, master cylinder, etc.....all the things that come with a manual. It's not exactly a weekend job. I also plan on swapping in a built, turbo Eco and yanking my turbo 2.4 and I originally wanted the Getrag but found out it'll take a little more work and downtime than I wanted. So I'm going to build and Eco and get a fairly new auto tranny and make a few mods to that to handle some more power, as well as get a better, higher stall torque converter to get more power to the ground. After all is said and done it should put about 315hp to the ground on 20psi....all on just a lightly built, mostly stock engine.
