hello everyone, i just recently aqquired a 73 nova SS (ss body but not ss engine) with a 350 slightly modded and i believe a th400 it also has a 3.90-4.10 rear gears.

I was hoping to do a manual swap since i prefer them over autos and mines is on the edge of a rebuild, i was hoping you guys could point me in the right direction for a 4 or 5 speed, i know i can get a muncie which is awesome coolness but i was hoping to be able to drive it without running over 2500 to 3000 rpm just to do 45 like i am know.

and you can throw all kinds of numbers and such at me as i am mechanically inclined and willing to learn.

i did a tremec TKO 600 5-speed in mine and with 3:73 gears i can run 65mph all day at about 2100rpm's.check on the internet there are company's that offer a auto to mannual kit for around $2800. i think. good luck

Here's everything you need for a Tremec swap. Soup to nuts. I think prices are right around 3k for the complete kit.
