It's not that much harder, just some tighter spaces to work in....as long as a few guys with skinny arms are around, it's a cakewalk.

Even easier if you have a hoist, you can yank the engine and trans right out of the top....
JUSTIN...

well first if you go and try to drop the cradle in the driveway your gonna have a hellacious time not that it cant be done, but pulling the motor and trans out the top is even more work yet, if it was me id drop the cradle but if Â*I was you, id take it to somebody and get it done>only because ive done it so many times to know which way to go plus i had a lift and it was hard enough. once a buddy and i got an SHO motor and trans swap done in Â*6 hours(not that it was worth it) Â*but it took practice it took 22 Â*hours to do a motor and trans swap on the fiero
