Default How hard is a auto to manual swap and what is the avergage cost?

I recently sold my stroker and i am jumping ships you can say and am lookin at a 12v or 24 v cummins but i can not find any truck that are set up how i want but i can find automatics just like i want. SO i am wanting know how big of a deal is it to put a manual in one. We did a swap on a buddies 1/2ton chevy and had a donor truck and everthing bolts right up will it be that easy on one of these truckS?

it will all bolt up except you are going to have to swap the input shaft on the transfercase. there is complete kits for $3500 with everything even a 450hp clutch. but u can piece it together for cheaper if you hit ebay or craigslist. its not a hard swap if u take your time. p.s dont use an nv4500 out of a gas truck. and dont swap the trans output shaft to the smaller one.... swap the t=case to the larger splined shaft.
