I'm in the process of doing such a swap. It's a big job, but I have a lot of help.
Long story short: it requires a fair amount of money (~$3k, including labor -- not including some money you can get back from selling your old transmission), a lot of time to locate all the parts (you don't want to buy them all new!), and a couple of days to do the work.
