Think of it this way:
Scenario A: If you replace the CVT transmission, you have a running car you can sell/trade for something with a manual transmission.
Scenario B: If at some point during the transmission swap, what happens when you run into issues with compatibility between parts? Get frustrated and want to quit? Realize that this is costing too much time/money to complete? You are left with a half-finished project, or a car that is put back together but riddled with problems. You'll have a real tough time trying to sell/trade that car.
Scenario C: Everything works 100% with the swap. Success! You'll probably shave a few years off your life and maybe invent some new levels of profanity, but SUCCESS!
I wish you the best in whatever direction you choose to take.
