Question 1: No, not terribly.
Question 2: Not if you're nimble and have flexible, dainty hands.

 

so then its possible awsome.
i wish there was a write up on this i have never worked on something newer than a 96.
this stuff boggles my mind!!!

there is like no room for anything

I still have to drop the tranny in January. I just finished the timing belt change this weekend and want to take a break. I have to replace the reverse synchro and some bearings. It looks like it is a very tight fit. Looks like it's easier to pull the motor and tranny together from the top. We'll see.
