Default Autobox

Is anyone building an auto?

I am strugeling to find a v6 ford box, but have 2 autoboxes in the garage.

A semi electronic A4LDe
A full electronic A4LDE

I was thinking of geting a transmission controller so I could do flappy paddle with the full electronic box.

Have wondered about this myself as most things here are auto and your unusual if you want a manual!! only issue i would think is the size of the bloody auto box all the ones ive seen are massive compared to manual.
Another option maybe look at other gearboxes,celica and supra etc are very popular here to use although you would need a bellhousing to suit.

Yeah the A4 Weighs in at nearly 75KG's , the body is not too wide but the area around the valve block is fairly wide.
