I did this once many years ago (with a different make and model), and
would never put myself through the pain and frustration again.
Especially with a car built after 1980 (when computer emission
controls were introduced). There are just too many little differences
that come up (requiring different parts, wiring, cutting, modifying,
etc, etc). The project will nickle and dime you to death, and in the
end the car may never be "right".
If you really want an MT, then safe yourself a lot of headaches and
get a different car.
