Go to any reputable dealer or web site and look for a full manual shift kit for a AODE/4R70W from Transgo. Other companies may have them as well, but I am familiar with this one. Converters can be found at any transmission shop, but do your homework. That includes getting the correct one for your application and shopping for a good price. I love my auto tranny. Check out this link for info about the transmission:

It's an older article, but still applicable to the 4R70W

i think its funny how most of the people pushing the manual saying its better blah blah blah, and autos suck have never driven a stalled auto. yes i agree an auto w/o a stall sucks *****. but the tables turn substantially when you add a stall, shift kit. and yes ive had m5s, m6s and autos, so i know the difference. but hey do what ya gotta do
manuals
pros - saying that you have a manual, fun bangin gears, 2nd gear burnouts, back road drives are always fun
cons - stop and go traffic, replacing clutches, getting rolled on by a stalled auto from a light
autos
pros - outshifting any manual on the road, killer 60's, stop & go traffic is no big deal,
cons - saying you have an auto, cant bang gears on back roads
