    Its one of those thing that if you have to ask you should probably not do it. Pretty straight forward.

      Have you ever pulled a motor before? It's fairly straight forward with most motors...

      If you have some mechanically inclined friends buy some beer and pizza and have at it.

            What did you end up doing for a motor?

                Lol Travis.

                Replacing an engine is an in-depth process. Need to deal with Driveshaft, trans, wire harness, a/c, power steering, cooling system, etc, etc.

                Do you have an auto or manual?

                Edit: just realized you PMd me. Give me a holler if you need me to come down!
