nope, the B3 auto trans should be built up a bit before being put behind the B8. the B8 trans is computer controled, so they don't PnP.Trees aren't kind to me...

sorry, i do not. i wouldn't get discouraged by the B8 trans, if you're using the b8 ECU, you just need the harness to go with it (seperate plug). i'm currently working on a BP auto swap for an aspire, it's almost PnP. i think some mount relocation may be in order, but the rest seems to be all there.Trees aren't kind to me...

So what all did you have to do for the tranny on the aspire to make it work with the bp? If I did a b6 sohc would I have to change anything? How many Hp to those have?1997 Ford Aspire, MTX, Teal, B3E - "Trusty"

BP aspire hasn't happened yet... still getting my ducks in a row.
a B6 swap will give you another 20hp (about), and you don't have to touch the stock trans.Trees aren't kind to me...
