4.6L engine swap, 1st timer

[ElementCorndawg]

Alright, I've done a few motor swaps before, but never a complex computer-controlled motor.
The questions I want to ask are
1). How long should this take (about, I just want an estimate, because my dad's only around for so long, and I need to find an adequate opening)
and
2). Any really screwey quirks with this motor or the swapping procedure?
I just want to be prepared.

what year and what car is it going into. the top bolt on the starter is a total PITA to get to.

I have a 98GT and we swapped a 99 motor into it. I had a guy helpin me and it took a day. Keep in mind that he had done the swap before and knew exactly what needed to be done.

non experinced it should take about a day and a half and that is constant working and no 2 hour smoke breaks. The started bolt is a PITA and the top trans bolt are kinda hard to get to but that is about it. Remeber where all of you computer wiring goes.

plus what kind of shop is this being done in? do you have a lift and power tools? or will it be done on jackstands
