first time i installed a b-series in my hatch i did it entirely on my own, which includes pulling the a6 and dropping in the b18. i completed that in about a day. i was on a deadline and didn't want to pay for 2 days of usage on the engine hoist. assuming you dont run into any trouble and nothing stupid comes up it shouldn't take you all that long to do. just depends on how prepared you are and what level of mechanical prowess you possess lol.
