Rich, it is possible on a GT6 (don't know for sure about a Bond, though).
I happen to prefer it myself, partially because I don't usually have
access to a decent hoist for that boat anchor of an engine. Besides,
being a scrooge, I hate to spend money on new exhaust gaskets and all the
other stuff you really should replace when you remove and reinstall an
engine.
Removing the seats is a good idea. Having a second person to assist also
is a good idea. Having a clutch alignment tool is a REALLY good idea.
I've done it with none of the above, but I was desperate at the time!
