automatic to manual

[Car_Doc86]

great deal just came up on a 240, but the downfall is its a automatic. Anyone know about how much the transition from auto to manual might cost me? thanks a lot

if you swap it yourself it should be cheap....less than 500 if you find a decent deal on a tranny. Then you need a few cheap items like shift boot, manual gauge cluster...etc
