body and tunnel, no problem, but there are so many other things you need to do

1) remove the ECU controlling the tranny
2) all associated electronic crap
3) transmission oil cooler and hose/lines
4. there may be other electronics assoicated with the autobox that need to be dealt with.

Probably easier to sell your car, and buy a stick shift car.
