I meant to ask the same question before. The question is who do you take it to. 10/10 mechanics will say no because they know they pains that go behind swapping a new engine and furthermore know how difficult and annoying it would be to attach auto to the engine.

In my opinion automatic tranny can and will support the engine, with a few modifications that is.

take me and player158
I have ST and he has ST
I have auto 7afe he has manual 7afe

Visually engines look the same and have the same stock HP.

1993-1999 toyota supra comes both manual and auto with same hp.

Many sports performance vehicles, including race cars come with auto transmission.

I think with persistence it is possible to find a mechanic that does it.

I am definetly thinking about swapping and autoing 3sgte

As much as it is fun to drive a stick, Computer controlled tranny with perfect shifting is better performancewise, at least in my opinion.
