I've seen a master tech do this one one occassion.. drove in a car w/ auto trans and drive it out 3 hours later a 5spd! ( he was one the best I've ever worked with )
labor charges depend upon the tech actually doing the job.. i figure about $1000 would be about right for the swap.. ecu seems kinda pricey..
reliability would not differ, except if the person doing the job forgets a few screws "here and there" but.. It can be done.. : )

That's for a G2 teg right cause there's no way it's that cheap for a G3... That's about the right amount for labor though.

ECU is only 100 or so. It only costs around 300 if you want a VTEC ecu, which you don't need or could even use.
