two fays labor tou have to be kidding it is a 4 to 5 hour job to swap the motor if that
Yeah right, if you you are superman! Are you speaking from experience or from a Labor Time Standard? It takes about 2 hours just to remove the front clip.
speaking from experience. If you take two hours to remove the clip... I can have the front clip off in under 1 hour. Then the motor is right the it comes out 20 min later. The swap everything over and reinstall. I posted some pics of this procces

It might take a little longer if you have shop room the size of a closet, your dad takes all the power to tools to work and when hes gone all he left was mannule stuff.
I am going to try to gett what I can done at my house befor the weeks over, and take it to your dads shop.

I can't see the motor swap taking too long either, I just did the first oil change on mine and pulled the front clip off to get at the filter. With the front clip off the engine would be EASY to pull, I'd say 6 hours max like Yam177 said. I ALSO found out that if a person was to get a K&N filer with the nut on it you could change the filter buy only pulling the plastic clutch cover, the front cover (where the tool pouch mounts), and bending out the plastic the by the lower rear Arm mount. The filter just fits through there and there is enough room to put a wrench on the end and get 1/12 turns on the nut.
