Yes but I'm guessing these people ALSO had a full garage with all specialty tools required to do the job AND the know how of what they were doing. I'm talking about a guy that's doing it in spare time has probaly never done it before and may not have all the tools necessary.

if 93eclipsegsx helps him, then im sure he could get it done in that amount of time. he could use the garage for the installing the engine parts. he wouldn't need a garage for the electrical stuff.

electrical should only take a matter of 20 minutes anyway and mechanical most is bolt up after the bumper is removed and TApping oil feeds is the hardest part

I'm not saying it's all hard don't get me wrong. I just know how I am with projects (Bear in mind I have a '97 Accent sitting on jackstands in teh driveway that I WAS going to slap the trans in place merely to test the engine but decided to go the whole 9 and get the clutch now so I don't have to pull the trans again later. Point is it's still sitting there and been there over a week now. Finally got an ECU for it though).
