It took me maybe 90 min to get the motor down and most of that was spent
screwing around with pressure washing the bottom of the motor & car off.
I also drained the power steering, oil and radiator before starting.
There was about a gallon of water in the bottom of the crank case.

Yep, that's the easy way to change the plugs on one of those cars. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/rotf.gif)

With all the weight you pulled out of the front of that thing, I'd have been afraid of rolling the car off the lift backwards as the last bolt dropped out. Nice. Double-flaring, or bubble-flaring as a lot of the newer cars use, is not that difficult, as long as you have the right tools.
