If you are mechanically handy it is not to hard to do.
Cost will depend on 6 or 8, 6 would be relitively cheap, V8 dearer.
You need pedal box (clutch and brake pedal), master and slave cylinders and line
Sandwich plate, bellhousing, flywheel, clutch,
gearbox single rail-cheap or toploader dearer
speedo cable.
You will also need to fit a spigot bearing in the rear of the crankshaft
The original cross member and gearbox mount will interchange, the tailshaft will also interchange.
The original speedo cable will fit but it is to long and is untidy.
hope this helps
