It's an overnighter. U are well advised to break journey, altho there are some madcap cabbies who are doing the trip now in 20 hours straight with hardly a stop en-route and disregarding the altitude implications. Search the site for threads/posts about "AMS" by vistet, Avid Trekker and others for more info.

It took around 16hrs when i did "The Rocket Run" from Leh to Manali by share jeep. If you are coming from Leh there should not be any altitude implications, you will have acclimatised in Leh. The share jeeps leave Leh around 1AM arriving Manali late afternoon.
