How can I get antifreeze out of my exhaust?
Once you carefully remove your engine (not by just hacking at stuff) all it takes is to remove the cut-off wires and hoses from the new one, drop it in, and attach all your existing plugs and fittings. Bolting it to the drivetrain and the exhaust completes the install. You and some friends can probably accomplish this over a weekend.
