You'll need to take it to a machinist, but the modifications required are fairly straight forward. You need to shorten the shaft, get gear pressed on, and get a base plate made. A friend did this to get a 6MGE running with a 5ME ECU only a month ago.
Cost was about $100. Other than that, I'd suggest ringing around to locate a mechanical dizzy. I'd imagine the price for one would be similar.
I can provide you with my friend's email address, and he can outline the exact nature of the mods required.
EDIT: Check your PM.
