From reading your posts, you should not have any problems. The work is done from above, and once you get the belts and A/C out of the way(hoses intack), you can get at everything.
The medium difficulty item is removing the bolt that holds the crank pulley on. You remove the A/C drive pulley which is bolted on to the main pulley with 4? 10mm bolts and the big bolt is easier to get at. It's either a 27 or 30mm depending on year and a ground down socket helps so you can fit it and the breaker bar between the bolt and the firewall. You have to hold the engine in place with a prybar/big screwdriver in the flywheel or you can crank the engine with the breaker bar against the frame. I used a screwdriver stuck in the flywheel up near the starter behind the clutch cover to "lock" the engine while pulling hard on the breaker bar. Once loose the rest is straightforward. Check out the townsendimports procedure for a detailed description.
