well if it helps i want to put a rebuilt 4.3 from a truck into a scirocco : p i know its twisted but its a project and i want to do it relatively cheap so i was wondering if there where any stock options that could be rebuilt.
 
I would go with 'Brigs an Warner' they hold up to alot of HP.... but 700R4 auto trany with a 3000 rpm stall is good also if you didnt have to have a straight shift..... alot of camaros and some trans-am have the straight shift 'Briggs an Warner 5 speeds in them... only thing u need to keep a eye on is the splines COUNT THEM to match your drive shaft.. because there is alot of trannys that will mount right up to the chevy small blocks...
 
the 4.3 is nothing more than a 350 with the back two cylinders cut off, so in theory any chevy manual transmission with a small block bolt pattern should fit
