i can tell you're new  :<)  ... the automatic is a far more reliable trans
than the 4spd.... in a year or so when your 3/4 slider hub cracks in your
4spd, you'll wish you woulda left the automatic in there...
you say the 4 speed has more performance?  not really..these arent exactly
drag racers :<) and actually both the 4spd, and Auto have equal cruising
performance at max speed.


anyway, welcome to the list !
