i'm looking to do an engine swap in my 96 gagt 2.4L.

any idea how labor intensive this will be?

any special parts i'll need to purchase ahead of time?

I have one warning,DO NOT TURN BACKWARDS!If you turn the crank backwards you will bend the valves.Turn the crankshaft as you are tightening a bolt.Remove the mount under the oil pan,you will have to drop the suspension on that side a little bit to get the mount out and it makes it much easier to get the engine out.The last one I did was in a cavalier with a blown 2.4 and it did break the block.I had to remove the oil pan,pieces of the piston,rod came down right awy on the floor after pulling the oil pan.That is the worst situtation you may run into
