What manual gearbox goes on the end of a 3.2 V6 ?
Is it the R28 ?

Standard 3.2 runs an R30 box, difference being 5th gear is "longer" than on the R28. Fitting an R28 is still acceptable though

This is something I would also like done to my 3.2, I have all the parts, just need someone to do it with, as I never taken a gearbox of a car.

It's only 38 bolts (includfing flywheel and clutch pressure plate), 3 spring clips and a healthy dose of gravity

if you want better acceleration keep the auto diff.. they have shorter ratios.. but shaft will change..
