Default how difficult would this be???

just wondering how difficult it would be to convert my 2000 dak r/t to a 5 speed, and if the clutch pedal bracket comes standard on the fire wall, that way when it comes down the assy line and it gets a atomatic trans they would just leave the pedal out or vise-versa. thanks

It has been done several times. It's not cheap, but it can be done. If you're going to do it right, you'll need to get rid of the steering column and instrument cluster stuff associated with the auto tranny, the floor console will have to go, etc.
