If you can live with a little tradeoff, sure. You will be trading convenience for gear banging, and a few tenths at the track for some mileage.

Do you race it? If so the answer is no. But if you just like to cruise then maybe it is.

Only you can decide if it's worth the swap. I'm doing it, purely because manuals are more fun to drive to me. I have more fun driving my DD than I do my cammed/stalled camaro simply because I get to bang gears.
