Default Auto to manual conversion

Anybody have experience swapping an automatic for 5sp in S-14?
JDM S14 is looking for another chassis to install wrecked SR20det motor and tranny into. Seems to be about 4/1 ratio of automatic vs. manual for sale out there.

If it's not a complete pain in the ass to convert an automatic, (pedal assy. etc.), then there are a lot more cars to choose from.

How hard is it to do? I have all the parts and whatnot from the totalled car, but I am not sure if that is something that I would want to do.

its no worse than a clutch job with a few additions such as adding the clutch pedal and master cyl. lines and slave, bleeding those. a little wiring changes/shifter install and done. as far as the brake pedal, dont hassle swapping that crap out, just cut the brake pedal, saves lots of time.

it even has the electrical page.
