And about the clutch pedal assembly does it mount to the old stuff or do I need to do something to make it fit. Not to shure about this part. Any modifying or is it a direct bolt on. Also do I need a new bell housing for the manual. And do I need a new driveshaft or just the yoke to fit the manual
The bellhousing is fine.
You'll need the new yolk. I was able to find a driveshaft for ~$60 from a local junkyard so I went that route. If I were you I'd looking into getting an aluminum DS.

I don't know 100% on the pedal assembly. I was able to take my clutch pedal off after removing a nut holding it in place. If I was you I would take a look yourself and see if it has room for another pedal, if not you'll need the manual pedal assembly.

IIRC my swap cost:
Trans - $400
Converter - went aftermarket but the trans I've been found at junkyards come with them
Trans harness - came with trans
Shifter base and cable - $60
Driveshaft - $65
PCM - $75 (I don't think you'll need one)
Flexplate - $25
That's way less than $1100 and even with my aftermarket converter it comes out just a little more than $1100. With your swap you'd need a new clutch kit which will run you a few hundred.
Unless I'm forget something major, which I don't think I am, $1100 is more than I'd spend. The only thing nice about it is everything is bundled.
