i am looking for a BP motor but all i find are ones with auto trans but can i use a motor off a automatic tranny on my manual tranny ?

I think so, but I'm sure someone else has a better answer. But I would like to tac on a different Tranny question: Has anyone out there upgraded their transmission to something maybe with 6 gears? That would be nice.

Yes I think you can.. You will need to install a pilot bearing/bushing into the BP crankshaft though (rear end of the motor) for the spindle of the trans to mate up with on the engine. Now.. as to how well your trans will last with the additional HP from the BP.. well thats one I cant say for certain. But it should bolt up without any problems.
