When I put my BBK's in it took me 3 days, but I also did it in a grocery store parking lot in february. I didnt have to disconnect the steering but i did jack the engine up quite a bit, I think until the trans hit the bottom of the tunnel, dont forget to loosen the trans mount. I also did one from the top and one from the bottom. Dont stress, its gonna be a pain in the ass but damn its worth it for sure!

i just finished putting mac lt's on my stang. passengerside was the easiest. driverside had to take out the steering shaft and the front of the brake assembly and jack engine up about 3 inshes or so. fit good after that. while the engine was up i did replace engine and tranny mounts, got a ford high torque mini starter. after that had it towed so i can put on magnaflow catz and borla pro xs mufflers and had the exhaust come out before the rear tires. sounds simular to a excotic car.
