There are a few companies now working on adapting the new 6 speeds to the older engines. They bolt up and such, but the controllers for the transmission is part of the valve body which means you have to make a box to talk to it since you can't simply use a stand-alone TCM for it.
that would be sweet a better trans on a 5.7
