If you're going to go with the gearbox swap, then yes, go for a manual box. While the engine is out, have it stripped, cleaned and re-built with a new head gasket. I couldn't believe the difference to my car after the gearbox/engine job. It was soooo quiet ... Like driving a brand new one! If you love the car, you definitely won't regret it.
