Change from Auto To Manual on a 5.5 Max!

ok guys, I needed to ask this question badly. Does ANYONE or a SHOP can switch my auto to a manual? If anyone here knows a place on the east coast that can do it for a great price, please let me know. I was about to spend about 2k on getting my auto redone with the torque converter, Phantom grip, and vavlebody upgrade, but if I can just get a manual put in, i will do that instead! Please help..
