Changing engine, How long does it usually take to swap an engine? Options

[carbondude]

My 5sfe head is shot I currently have 188,+++ on my engine so I am getting another 5sfe with about 85,000 to replace it. I I have about as much time as I have millions of $ none basically. So my point is I want to estimate how much time it would take for me to do it, compared to dropping it off to a shop. My wife thinks it would be better for me to do it to save money along with painting crap in the house installing this an that building a patio and working at my regular job. Then she says well sell it an get a new care thats when we had a falling out lol.

Oh we'd definetly get our asses handed to us by the ECG I like to take my time, label everything, clean everything, paint everything, etc etc etc. Took me a day and a half to pull my motor doing things this way last time. Masking tape notes everywhere

Probably so, but we'd leave them in awe when you, havoc and panda dead lifted the engine while me and Alex worked our scrony hands as fast as we do to line it all up and bolt everything down

But we'd loose in an overall time due to all the beer/smoke breaks we take Not to mention that sometimes (Especially when fenders are removed) random things get laid on my car that causes everyone to be distracted
