Like someone else said just trade in the V6 Alero for the 4 banger. Engine swaps are expensive so it would be cheaper to just trade the V6 for the LD9. Personally I wouldn't trade in a V6 for a 4 banger unless you planned on supercharging the 2.4. The V6 has plenty of power unlike the 2.4. A stock 2.4 lacks get up go. I would keep the V6 Alero and build a custom turbo.

Exactly what I'm doing

Seriously though ... Just 5 Speed the 3400. It will not be that bad.

Hey I removed my engine all by myself so how much do you think I saved doing it my self?

As for going from 3400 to 2.4TC, it would be better to trade considering you have to worry about the computer and wiring, so just keep the 3400 and slap on a custom turbo and you'll be burning stangs and camero bumble bees
