how long would it take a group of you guys to remove and replace my motor? a day?

[Twilightoptics]

[Xophertony]

well, depending on how many people, room to work, ect... 2-4 days

if we have 4 people, 2 with motor swap experiance, i would say one weekend. it took us 4 days to do Al's engine, but none of us had engine pull experiance.

i thought you were going to have this done by someone. also, the way my summer is there are only a few weekends i would be available. once fall rolls around i will be working a full time job (i hope) AND taking a class or two.. so i will have no time.

at the same time, it took paul, brandon, mike, and myself, like 3 months to do the motor in the sled.

i made a deal with this guy on ebay selling a 3.1 for $600 + $185 shipping for instead $450 for the motor + $185 shipping, i can have this paid off next time i get paid, but i dont want to save up another $700 just to have it installed

I can't remember why.. think it was either parts or $$ accumulation time. I know Mike and I pulled it back out, took the pan off, fixed the dipstick problem and put it back in, in like 2 hours.

[Danked]

well i got tools, and a hydraulic engine hoist i just dont know about putting everything back together when i take it out

[chevymad]

Just remember this shouldn't be a come do this for me deal. People will want to "help" you, not just do it. And if anyone does show up to help, i'd expect to at least feed them, and probably have a place to roll out a sleeping bag for the night. Summer is a busy time, so it might be hard to get people together. But you should get everything ready, when you have all the parts see who can come help. Also be sure to have extra $$ on hand. There is always something you didnt realize you needed, or you'll break something and you'll need to make a parts run. Been stuck many times waiting for the parts store to open the next day. Or worse, stuck waiting for parts from Summit because no parts store has what we need.

Otherwise, just save the money had pay to have it done.
