automatic tranny to manual
I have a 1997 dodge ram 1500 5.9 liter gas engine auto trans. I would like to know if a nv4500 manual trans. off of a 5.9 cummins disel will bolt up. I have had my tranny rebilt 3 times and have and have a total of 4500 miles since I first had trouble. Dose anyone know if you can buy a kit with all the nessary parts to switch from automatic trans to manual

No...the bolt pattern on the bell housing is incorrect.
You would need an NV3500 transmission.
No kits are available AFAIK. Your best bet would be to find a wrecked one in a junkyard and use it as a donor vehicle.
