[Shotimes] Cost of a motor swap and possible tranny issue

[Maury Alston]

Greatings from Florida,
   
  I notice that a lot of SHO'ers have done a motor swap.  How much would something like that run?
   
  Secondly I am fishing for some backup to my opinion.  Once my 92 MTX gets warm, it sometimes will barely move in 1st, stagger along in 2nd and 3rd, reaching a max spead of about 20-30.  Once I get it in 4th, it starts reacting normally and into 5th as well.  My initail thought is the tranny is going/gone south.  Has anyone else experienced anything like this?  This is a car that I got about 3 weeks ago.  It came with no services records or anything, so I am flying blind.
   
  Thanks for any and all responses
