With the right tools and help, you "could" get it done in 4-5
hours....that's if the other engine is already assembles (long-block). With
the parts swap and cleaning, give yourself the weekend to do it right.
Don't forget oil, coolant, and beer. ;)

Subject: DML: Midnight Engine Swap??
Well, it's going to be time for me to do an engine swap, and I was wondering
how long would it take to swap a 3.9 with another 3.9??? I may be able to
get a few friends to help, so I'm wondering if it's at all possible to do it
in a very long evening with 3 guys and an engine lift???
This post is probably confirmation that I've lost it, but I'm convinced
having all this engine stuff around is bad karma for me.....so I want to get
this over with. :)
Thanks,
