Transmission swap
What are the figures in terms of time and cost for converting a 2003 V6 Mustang to a manual transmission?

depends. Depends on what kind of transmission, where you get the parts from, who is installing, etc.

well a t-5 or t-45 you may be able to snag for about a grand or 2 or so, but if you want to go with a 6 speed out of the cobras that will be around 2.5K, and then some custom fabbing. Other stuff just depends where you get it from.
It will be around 3-5K roughly

And Something about launching at whatever rpm you want and shifting at whatever rpm you want and not having to re-tune the car every time you leave the track back to your daily tune...

My issue is that I cant really afford to get a GT just now (I just got my V6 a little over a year ago) I really wanted a manual but couldnt find one in a V6 from any deal...assuming I plan on keeping this car for a long while, is it worth it to convert it to manual or should I just leave it be?
