Jonas; Lot different than a V8. Subframe needs to come out. Not hard, but you need a way to hang the engine still in midair. Regular engine hoist could work, but a engine support brace works better, and can be bought, borrowed, or home-made. See SDPATT on TechSHO list and search for him and clutch job. Excellent write-up & even blue-print drawings!! 2x4s are the main ingredient.
