It's been done plenty of times, and it's a very easy conversion. When I get time i'll cut and paste all the descriptions of how to do it. It'll be an M20 or M22 box in your wagon too, it is very unlikely to be an M21.

There are 4 different M21 boxes. They all share the same physical 3rd gear. The bottom 3 examples are extremely rare:
The standard one normally found behind 308 engines, but occasionally turn up on 253s (eg VH SS group 1);
LH SLR5000 L34 box;
