How long to do a T56 swap

How long would it take to put a T56 into a car that had a 4l60E in it? I'm just curious what were getting into, I imagine it should only take 12 or so hours, not sure though.

It took us 8 hours....that is counting a 45 min or so dinner break. It wasn't bad at all. Like Trey said it's the little stuff that kills you. You have use a hole saw for drilling the clutch hydraulics mounting hole and you have to cut the shifter hole a little larger for the manual shifter. Someone made a post about the wiring too. They told which wires (that were inside the auto console) that needed to be connected and such.
