I recall reading in the Direct Connection Racing Manual (I cut my Mopar teeth on the blue "bible") that the engineers highly recommended against the swap. Yes, it can certainly be done. The DC engineers said that it was quite involved, and getting the angles just right can mean the difference between a successful project or a failed one. Like AJ said, if that is in your heart, then go for it. Alternatively, you can convert a 727 valve body to full manual to have the thrill of shifting without the hassle of the swap. Best of both worlds. For me, a good automatic shift kit with the correct kickdown linkage adjustment makes me smile! I can stomp the gas at 30MPH and the trans will go into first gear. That without the hassle of a clutch.
