If you are going to do this yourself, you should get a manual with step-by-step instructions...there are a lot of things to remove, and a couple of special tools you'll need. ( a puller to remove the harmonic balancer, for one). You have to basically strip the front of the engine to get at it, and pay attention to which bolts and spacers go where... some of the bolts are different lengths. I would recommend a Chiltons manual, or at least, a friend who has done this before. (definately not a job for the timid)
