convert auto to stick

How hard would it be to convert a 92 camaro that came with a 700R4 to stick shift and keep it road driveable ?

swap out the pedals.
drill the hole for the master cyl mount while the brake booster is out.
cut the hole for the shifter.

after that, its no harder then a clutch swap. honestly its not that hard of a job to do.

Convert to the T56, I'm just about done with my swap, minus the wiring.
You won't regret it.

just my opinion, but if you swap to a manual, either do the T56, or dont swap to a manual.
