if you have someone that knows what they are doing you can do it in an evening.

get a helms manual before you just start unscrewing stuff. you have to seperate the engine and transmission - quite a process.

i just did my clutch and it was pretty cool to open up my tranny. it took us 5 hours. this was the first time doing this. u need somthing to hold the tranny up. u dont have to take it out, just move it to the side. its pretty easy, just takes a lot of time. u need a person to move the flywheel when your taking the clutch off. have fun

my opinion is that it would help a great deal to have the special tool to keep the crank from rotating when ur removing the clutch/flywheel and installing the new one, ur honda techie should have one available

harder to take out...LOL....all we did was put a pry bar in one of the flywheels teeth and brace it against something sturdy so it wont move. then just take out the bolts....or if you have a compressor you might be able to just take it out.
