Default Auto to manual conversion in Nj

Hi i want to do an auto to manual conversion on my second gen integra. i have a b18a motor, ls tranny, ls ecu, axles, shiftlinkage, etc... and i need to find a shop that has experience with honda's and that has the confidence to do this. i found a couple of people that told me they could do it, but they told me if something goes wrong they dont want to be help responsible. that didnt give me too much faith in the person knowing what he was doing. So if anyone knows of some mechanic or performance shop in Nj that can do this for a decent price please let me know!!! thanks

The only shop that I know of that would probably do it is Tronix in freehold. go there at your own risk though :x

they did a b16a swap on my friends civic 4 door, they do that kind of stuff now. give them a call and see if they can do the auto-manual conversion.
