You could always try to drop the motor out of the bottom onto a low creeper/dolly and lift the car over it. Worked on my buddies GSX..........

use a jack, then lower the engine on to some old tires or something, then jack the car as high as it will go, then move the engine out and then put the new one under, then lower down and bolt up
