Nothing to be afraid of here. I did my first one in 12 hours and even 
encountered a problem along the way of not being able to get the trans 
back in. Since then I've shaved that time in half unless it's a group 
effort which just slows things down! That and I go crazy on clutch jobs 
anyway. I figure the subframe is out. the y pipe is out might as well 
replace the rod bearings the trans and starter are out. Might as well do 
the rod bearings while the paint on the subframe is drying!
