need help with decision making

I just got my first auto f150 a few months back, turns out this made me remember why I hate autos especially the e4od I have a 95 302 e4od that I believe needs a torque converter because the motor is revvin high between 40 and 50 mainly then it downshifts and flys, also taking off from a stop there's a severe lack of power until about 15mph and a slow knock I feel in my feet, that I've been trying to figure put since I bought it with no luck, I also have a 95 300 with an m5od in it that is rather sentimental but needs cab supports, typical obs rust and a few other small bits, if I swap the trans out of the auto id want a zf 5 speed but don't know what the other issue is so would it be worth it? or should I ship that one off and focus on the 300? Sorry for the long post but any help would be much appreciated!
