Question 4L60E to T56 conversion on LT1?

I have really always wanted a manual V8, even though a stalled auto would rearrange my guts.

I was wondering if any companies sell a conversion kit to make things easier? I want to know how much it would cost and if it would be worth the trouble.

I know I will need a new flywheel, master cylinder, clutch assembly, pedals, transmission and new cross member for transmission (if necessary). I could always sell my trans and make some money out of it.

I will also need some gears at the back.

Your input would be great guys.

I'm doing this swap right now, I have done it before, but not on my own car. I am looking to buy a conversion for the lt1 for around 1400 w/ shipping. I have never seen a company sell the swap, but a damn good idea it would be.

People sell the swap though, they rip everything out for the m6 and sell it so they can put a big'n'ol nasty th350 or something in.
