keep it auto and just get a nice stall and a shift kit. Dont forget to upgrade your transmission cooler when you do this

If you really want a manual trade it in for one. Theres a couple guys on here with nice stall converters, do a search for "stall converter" and you'll get good info. Just remember that a cooler is MANDATORY.
