Default Converting an automatic to manual

Alright from what I have seen there is a huge price gap between automatic and manual transmission mustangs from the 60's. What I was wondering was how much would it cost to convert an automatic to manual if it can even be done?

can and is done all the time. a bunch of us here swapped our old C4s out to T5s or 4spds, etc. my T5 swap cost me around 2400 including all the parts i needed. (tranny, bellhousing, clutch parts, driveshaft, etc). The rest was man hours since most of us do a lot of work ourselves

Alright, how many hours would it take for 2 people working to do. I personally doubt I'd be able to do it myself but I could probably get my dad to help. In the case that he doesn't want to though how much am I looking at to have someone else do it?
