JTod,
I wouldn't trust AAMCO to work on the trans. Even just a simple swap for swap can have some pretty nasty results. There has been several nasty reports back here of people with bad results from going there. You should be able to complete the in and out swap by yourself in a full day or make a weekend of it if you want to take your time with everything.
One main thing to consider is that you should look at clutch replacement/upgrade and also that you'll need to have your flywheel ground or if you want to upgrade you can buy a lightweight replacement.
