Swap complete.
On a serious note. The A/T to M/T conversion is the least of your concerns, since you will be buying a new trans, drivetrain, etc... already regardless. But the swap itself is a lot of work. So much so that the need to ask this question probably takes you out of the very very few individuals in this world where a swap like this makes sense.
Built FA20 shortblocks are pretty cheap if you can DIY everything yourself besides a tune you can be at a fun safe reliable 450whp for around $15k. If you want a M/T trade your car in for one. Or you can build the AT to handle 400ft lbs with clutch pack, valve body, torque converter for $3-4k more.

Thank you for your information
If I could buy M/T car, I'd buy it. But there are problems that make this impossible for me.
I know one Tuning Group doing this for a few other 86. But they were M/T
If I want to do it, I'll get help from them
btw thanks for your help

I'm not even sure how this would be accomplished. It may be easier to completely switch to a Tilton pedal setup as that would solve both of these issues so far. Of course, you will need a custom drive shaft and probably make a shifter cut out. Then there is the wiring. Thats going to be scary. I wouldnt even know how to begin with that. Getting diagrams for both engine and chassis would be a good start. Have highlighters and pens ready and get to matching wires. It is going to be a lot of hard work and even more money. Good luck with it all.

This is going to be done by myself and my friends (Tuning Group or shop)
