It a very heavy motor (w/ trans, etc. ~1000 lbs) so make sure you have the proper lifting equipment to do it safely. It's been discussed on here many times so look back at the old posts. Hints and experiences.
It's easier to pull everything together, I did it myself('49), but as Ross notes, you have to disassemble.
You probably don't want to do that if your trying to get other motor back in quick but it may be quicker, I don't know. Depends on your skill and equipment. I get some helpers.
