I've taken 2 of these engines out. Two things I struggled with:
1) Watch the water hose connection thing at the back of the engine. I broke it really easily on the first engine so was super careful on the second and still broke it. The part number is 1336G4 if, like me, you end up having to buy a new one.
2) The gearstick linkages are fiddly and the rubber can come apart so be careful with them.
I really recommend getting a thing to adjust the angle of the engine as you really need to tilt the engine a lot to get it out as the gearbox goes under the body.
