JDM engine swap

ok so i have a bit of a problem... i was going to do the swap at the garage where i work with a lift and what not, but after recently pissing off my boss, i cant do that anymore, and its going to have to be done in my garage. So basically what i need to know is, can i pull the engine through the hood, or is it going to have to come out of the bottom of the car?

now that is funny.

yes, you can pull it from the top. 99% of the engine swaps that i have seen, they have been pulled from the top.
