Too general of a question. You need to compare the current vehicle application (what are the year. make, and model both are to determine a correct answer). Anytime you change the type of transmission, it may or may not connect properly with the vehicle's electronics. Transmission mounts and the length of the driveshaft may also be different. I would recommend getting a "like" transmission to avoid installation headaches.
