If it's a straight-up engine swap it's only a 6 hour job, that includes bleeding the cooling system and oil & filter. That's all they give me at work whenever I have to do one, usually lose out on it and takes me about 6.5 hours to do it, standards add about a half hour due to the battle with the tranny. I have had the engine out of these cars in about 2 hours before, though they usually don't like to go in as nicely as they like to come out...
