People have already done it with GM's 6L90 and will soon be doing it with the 8L90. It just all depends on how much time and money you want to spend.

Well, I hardly use the paddles in my FR-S, so I could at least skip the steering wheel fab and work on the shifter in the dash. If it isn't like, 50% of the build cost, I think I'll be willing to swing it.
