To swap an engine yourself you need somewhere to do it. You guys make it sound like its an air intake or something... you and your friend cant lift in the engine and hand tighten the bolts! you need alot of tools for this. I dont know about you guys but I dont have an engine dolley sitting in my garage. And also doing it yourself from an ST requires welding I believe, and I dont have welding suplies in my garage either. An engine is not a "bolt on" and should only be attempted if you have know how. And buying all the tools and renting an engine dolley would be pretty expensive, Im guessing not to far from the labor cost of a shop doing it.
