yeah, it's easy when you pull the motor!

I'm putting mine in when I do the PI headswap, makes it a lot easier. Spend the $700 you would have on install and get P&P heads...

Id say the hardest part is the back bolts and the starter. You have to take off the starter. Id say unbold the 8 bolts that hold the tranny and engine together then jack up the engine on either side at time then put them in, thats prolly the easiest way to do it.
