Difficulty of changing tranny from auto to manual

Not exactly sure what you are asking...do you mean is it possible? Yep, sure is - many people have done it.

Of course you will need the parts as follows:
(I have even sold the parts that you need for such a conversion, so I know first hand.)

You will need:
R154 or W58 5 speed tranny
bell housing
tranny to engine block 'wings'/braces
shifter
first propeller shaft
clutch pedal
brake pedal (you can't use the wide one that N/A's have)
master cylinder
slave cylinder
clutch fluid reservoir
hard & soft lines from the reservoir to the slave cylinder
clutch
flywheel

Expect to pay about 500 - 600, if you were in the states (not including shipping charges).

It is hard for me to say how hard it will be for you to do it because I don't know how skilled you are with wrenching.
Some say it is pretty easy, but I would not quite say easy.

I took all those parts from a car, but never installed them in a car. heh
