well i didnt realise it came out bottom so i was trying for ages :oops: so i took every bracket off. (but hey i can clean and paint them all now)

so have a look at what you need to take of and rest engine on floor and lift the car over.

time? about 3 or 4 hours for the first time. i think it mite take me about 3 hours to put it all back in and im a engineer by trade (fitter) :oops:
some people have got it down to 2 hours.

good luck mate
