Default 5 speed swap

I have a 1996 cummins automatic transmission and I want to put a 5 speed in it. How hard is this to do? I won't be doing it but I want to know how much it would be for a shop to do it. What transmission should i get? What type of clutch? Any imput from anybody would be helpful! Thanks a bunch
