You don't have to completely remove the dash. There's only 7-8 bolts that hold it in. Unbolt what you can and simply pull it away from the bulkhead for more working room. You definitely need to remove the steering column altogether. It's not that difficult. Alot of guys have done this swap. Do a search over on www.turbotbird.com and you'll come up with all kinds of info.
