4 speed or auto 3 speed?

Ok so I found out my grandpa has a 1969 c-10 sitting around that has a 350 in it with if I can remember correctly has a 3 speed auto(I'm not totally for sure). So I'm thinkin about getting that 350 and hoppin it up a little but I'm not for sure whether I should keep my four speed or switch it out with the auto. So whats your guys opinion. The auto has about 150k miles on it the 4 speed has 100k on it.

Depends on what you're looking for. I love my manual except when I'm sitting in traffic.

Re: 4 speed or auto 3 speed?

Well it will be basically a daily driver, except when I feel like rompin around town with my friends. But would there be any performance loss with going to a 3 speed auto, because the gears are different?
