Cant help with a workshop but allow yourself about $9k to do it if you want a 6 speed in there. A 5 speed would be a lot easier, quicker and will literally go straight in whereas the 6 speed requires a lot of other parts to be changed with it.

CMS in Sydney do pretty good work, but what b2tf said is on the money - it's going to cost a fair bit and not a straightforward exercise.

Am aware of a complete running EF 5L with a six speed in it. Think it was for sale at around 6k. Can follow up if you like?
