the short answer is yes. i have done this project three times in the past 15 years.

there are a lot of variables depending on the year. its really best to have a donor car

for this project. some year cars you will need to swap out the entire drive line, plus

change the instrument cluster and front wiring loom.

the manual transmission with overdrive is longer than the auto transmission. also cable driven speedometer vs. electronic speedometer with the speed sensor in the rear deferential.

it can be a daunting task. but if you like the feel of a manual transmission and have a nice car it is well worth it. i would not do this project without a donor car. nuf said.
