Pretty easy to for a swap. Fluid lines two engine mounts and tranny (your choice to leave it in the car or take with the engine) I usually leave the tranny and just take the motor. Have fun and drink lots (after its out of course). :wiggle:

Don't be like me and sit there for an hour trying to figure out why I couldn't seperate the motor from the tranny. I missed one of the tranny bolts. After I took the starter out I missed the other bolt that was down there and sat there like a dumbass prying on the motor.

make sure you get the pic of yourself sitting in the compartment without the engine.. That seem popular for some reason.

Yeah, that's a must. Someone should make a sticky with nothing but those pics, that would be hillarious.
