Thread-topic: Engine pull - How Long Is Typical Time Frame For Doing This?
The OSHIT crew out here can deinitely do it in under 2 hours. Hell, they
had my '79 1500 completely disassembled before lunch!
 
If you're on your own, I'd say it should take no more than a morning's
work, 4 hours max, and that's with being fastidious with bagging your
fasteners.
 
Have fun. :)

This?  

Ok ok - I am going to pull my 1275 out of "Vomit Yellow" (Bugeye) to do
a 
gear box swap. How long does this usually take? 

I hear of work parties taking the good part of the day and then I hear
about 
it being done in under two hours or less? 

Someone please help ease my fear! 

I pulled and replaced a small block Chevy years ago - seemed like it was
not 
a huge deal - but it was 20 years ago so I don't really recall the
entire 
process that well. 

Thanks! 

Kirk
