Understanding an automatic takes time. Rebuilding one, more time. Understanding a manual is easy, rebuilding one is nearly impossible. There's 200 snap rings, 50 bearings, 10 million shims and spacers, and a bunch of gears and synchros. Every piece has to be checked for lash and bearing clearance. Get one shim wrong and you lose a gear within the first 1,000 miles. Get one bearing clearance wrong and you junk the trans.
I'll stick with autos lol.
