Well, it depends on what you're converting to a 5 speed. If it's the ecotec or the ld9 (twin cam) engine, then all you need is everything 5 speed related from the donor car. Then it's just take everything that's not the engine out of the auto car, look for the hole where the fluid reservoir goes (forgot the name), get the clutch and reservoir in, and of course swap trans, and clutch. Flywheel should probably be the same from the donor car or a new one.

If it's the v6, then that's a heavier project since the 3400 didn't have it stock. It can be done, just takes a lot more...

don't forget that a pcm flash may be necessary.
