Swap can be done without too much difficulty. And yes, if done properly, it will look like it came that way. Why don't you try a stall converter? Will very likely change your mind about the automatic.

shifts might feel a little less firm. Having a Converter is like being able to dump the clutch at 3500 rpm when launching.
