well i wasnt there for every step in the pull (was at work for some of it, from what my mechanic told me the hardest part was spearating the trans for the block and getting to the hidden bolt.

also when lifting it out it got hung up on the belt side motor mount, and getting that out of the was was a bit of a bitch, but only because of seized bolts (may not be the case in other cars)
