Default Auto to 4spd help

Can someone tell me what is involved in changing 68-72 auto to a 4spd? I'm looking into buying a 72 but unfortunately it's an auto which I don't care for in any type of muscle or sports car. Detail as much as you can please also expected costs for the parts involved.

thanks
VC :cheers:

It's been too long since Iv'e done this to be able to give you cost estimates, but here are some links to some of the recent posts made involving this swap. Even though these posts refer to Richmond 5 speed swaps, the info is the same. I originally changed my 71 over to a muncie from the Th400 before finally installing the 5 speed so I know the info is the same. http://forums.corvetteforum.com/zerothread?id=185434 http://forums.corvetteforum.com/zerothread?id=184112
