Bye 200c, hello ???

So my 200c is about to bite the dust, im putting a 3.4l engine in my car anyways, so i thought why not change the tranny out at the same time. It's an automatic, i'd prefer a manual but i guess i can stay with the auto. What do you guys suggest i switch to and what needs to be changed along with the new tranny? I was going to get the engine from Pull-A-Part for about $130 and a tranny for about $56

T5 or 700-R4.
Get the driveshaft, torque arm setup and crossmember with it.

what about a 4l60e from a 93-95 camaro? thats where im getting the 3.4l engine and i figured it'd be easier to pull both at the same time, the only thing is that i dont know much about the 4l60e

Doing a whole powertrain swap like that is a great idea, more work overall probably though.
In that case, get basically all wiring, the fuel system including lines and exhaust.
