Hmm... you will have to decide what manual transmission to use. You will also have to decide what engine to use. If you stay with the old 324 motor then it has a completely different bell housing than newer Oldsmobile motors. If you convert an automatic transmission car to a manual transmission car you also have to remove the engine, completely disassemble it, and have the crankshaft drilled for a bushing. Not to mention that you are going to have to set up the clutch and shifter.
