I to have also been tempted to change mine to a manual seams to be way to expensive though $2500. Why don't you buy a car with a manual transmission when you are ready for your next one.
Don't drink and drive you might spill some

To take an LS1 to manual, you are looking at around 4-5k, thats with everything matching, not sure how things would go with the 6...

everything is possible with money, you never know, a ecotec 5-speed bellhousing could bolt upto the vz 6 speed box,
wont know until you expirment

I think holden used the same auto box vy/vz so maby you'd be lucky with the manual being the same. I have a feeling though the vy box was a getrag and the vz a asian box or something like that?
Good luck with it
I know that the manual box in VE SV6's is a BMW built trans not too sure about the manual trans box on VZ's/VY's.
Why don't you try this mob:
Mal Wood Automotive
Im sure if anyone would know if its feasible, it would be these blokes.
