1/4 of the cost? i doubt it.
i wanted to swap as well, then started weighing the pros and cons, so not worth the hassle. i stuck with the auto, dumped 650 in my trans and its so much better.
atleast you can do something with the 5r55e, the m50d isnt that great at all, and like i said the slave is junk which has been proven on this site alone several times.

well maybe about 1/2 the cost of a complete rebuild (torque converter, clutches, solenoids, bands, seals, etc).....
$650 i am figuring about $100-$150 more than that for the complete swap.......
the best price i have got for a complete rebuild was $1600.....since i can't do the work myself cause i don't know a tranny
i am going to a junk yard tomorrow to see what i can get parts and pieces for.......i am going to take my computer with me so i can plug numbers in while i am there...

won't handle 35s?? huh. I seem to remember certain someone having 35s and a heavy right foot. The EE SC is what killed that trans. Blew it into oblivion. Manny trannys in our trucks don't take to kindly when it comes to wheelin', but you don't wheel, so you should be okey dokey for this swap. My last trans lost 2nd gear. This '06 model year unit is doing very well. good luck with the swap, mo. I think its a good idea.
