Anything is possible, assuming you have enough time and money, money, money.

The best way to start is by finding a donor car with a five speed. Not sure if the 850 NA five speeds will work with the 99 S70or not?

Again take a look at the link I provided. It tells you what that person did to do a manual swap into his 2000 which is ME7 just like your 99.

Link works fine. Become a member doesn't cost anything and you don't have to use it for anything else but that thread.
