auto vs 5 speed?

[uglydogo]

Was have been thinking about one or the other. I have both. not sure witch one to put in the car. My car is currently an automatic. I have never had an automatic car was wondering what is the good and bad about an automatic over a 5 sped

[Mike]

What the combo?

[uglydogo]

4v 4r70w
Tremec 3650 4v
The 5 speed and 4v are out of a 01 cobra

[Mike]

I'm assuming this is either a daily driver, or strictly a street car? Just go with the 5 speed.

[uglydogo]

Well kinda t will be chilling at the house for 28 days at a time I only will drive it at the most for 14 days

[uglydogo]

Yeah street car for the most part

Just put the five speed in and have fun rowing gears.

I think 5 speed is better then automatic. i am drive both and i feel much better in 5 speed.

[uglydogo]

Ok that was the first thought. That's pretty much as straight up as it gets.

[uglydogo]

Is the 3650 a good trans. Don't know much about them

[Mike]

Which one of you mother fuckers is named Justin?

[Unicorn Jeff]

Probably both of them.

There becomes a point when power and duty exceeds the practicality of a standard transmission. If it is nothing more than a street car and 450 or less at the wheels I would say standard all day long. If the car hits the track on Friday nights and makes that, I would consider an automatic.

Mine makes 650 to the rear wheels and I run a 6spd in a car that may never see the lights of the drag strip and even the fun for me of shifting around town and wondering if the clutch is gonna go up in smoke this stab is wearing thin.

X2. If it is gonna see a lot of track then auto. If it's a street car enjoy slamming gears
