Is this swap possible and is it plausible. What would be the end price and what exactly would need to be done?

Its been done. There is a website that sells the adapters to get the engine into the car. You'll need an ECU of some sort a lot of people are going Microtec.
Try these websites out.
www.nopistons.com - they have a great engine swap forum with lots of info
http://www.fc3s.org/ - this site sells the mounting adapters to do it.
Its quite a job but the 13B-RE is an awesome engine. There is a post somewhere on NoPistons where someone disassembled both engines and compared the ports. The RE is clearly a better engine over the 13B-REW that I have. Where was that post a year ago. LOL, Hindsight its beutiful thing.
