A long drunken weekend, but I suspect a (less drunk) pro would do it in the region of 8-10 hours. You'll need the complete pedal box and gear shift assembly from the manual, as well as the manual gearbox, clutch (+hydraulics), flywheel and I'm sure various minor items I'm missing out. The easiest thing is to have a donor, or at least have access to one nearby. Parts prices will vary widely depending on how you source them. If you buy a donor car at £200, then that's all your parts right there (+ a new clutch if you're sensible, and a new crank seal. and CV boots). -- Grunff
