It is impossible to 'convert' an automatic transmission into a manual transmission. You car replace the automatic with a manual, which also requires installing a clutch pedal, clutch cable, or clutch master and slave cylinders, as well as a shifter and shift linkages.

If it's an automatic transmission it can stay in the car. Simply unbolt the torque converter from the flywheel and the trans from the engine. If it's a manual trans it's not that simple. You don't have enough room to slide the engine forward from the input shaft on the trans. It's easier to pull them both together.
