When I did it I took it out the bottom. Wasn't bad at all. 

I used a strap that I wrapped around the cowling braces and lifted the body. 

Take lots of pictures along the way so you know how to put it back together. 

I placed a board on the jack when I removed the cross member. I seem to recall 
I left the wheels on it and just rolled it out from under the front of the car. 
The car is on stands at that point. Then you jack the engine and unbolt it and 
the tranny and slide the whole package out through the left front wheel well. 

Somewhere there was a step by step list on how to do it. 

I think the issue with taking it out the top is vertical lift clearance. 

Have fun. ;).
