you'll need to leave the ECU connected coz it controls the gearbox aswell as the engine, but aslong as the transmission end of it all matches up ok i would think it will just make the ECU throw a wobbly and flash the check light up but aslong as the 2l doesn't rely on an ECU to control it at all i would say it should run ok, so long as the ECU doesn't throw a hissy fit and stop telling the gearbox what to do.

the engine doesnt have any electrics on be side the normal sensors,

i was woundering if the auto would work or not.

Something to check. I think the auto also relies on the TPS (Throttle Position Sensor) for a signal.

think it gets info from the crank sensor also which the older engine didnt have.
