there's a first for everything, and nothing beats hands on learning IMO.
/thread.

my garage is really messy with parts and crap right now, or I would offer it up to help... and most shops wouldn't have a quick turn around either; I've seen b16 swaps into civics take 2 WEEKS at Adrenaline. when I did it, my swap took 2 days- 1 to pull two motors, and 1 to drop it in and put the car back together(this was 2 guys w/ hand tools taking our sweet ass time too).

but borrowing the big stuff (engine hoist) and buying the smaller tools you need is a much better way to do it than paying someone else. Think about it, you pay less, and have those tools forever. if you can't buy the tools, you can't afford to pay to swap it either.
This post comes with a guarantee: I guarantee that I don't care what you think about it.
