im a fellow mustang lover..and i know from experience, a higher stall converter and shift kit and your just as fast/faster than manuals...but have u ever changed tranny fluid on a car that the filter must come out to...i do all the maintence on my car as many autopians probaly do..thats no fun....add to the that that in auto's, the tranny fluid gets routed thru the bottom of the radiator so a flush is better, which means i would have to take it to shop and lets them get it all non-autopian like
.....my uncles driveways has a lil stain from us dropping his tranny pan
