      Sounds like a good deal to me, I always wondered how the straight 6 would run with an automatic transmission.  Never had the chance to drive one.

I was pleasantly surprised when I converted my 79 to a TH350 from the 3 speed.  Clutch was shot and had an auto in a 78 parts truck.  Ran quite well, and had more pep that when it was a stick.
