Blower motor replacement (and possible core tranplant)

Reading thru some of the previous posts the prudent thing to do when replacing the blower motor is to also replace the heater core. This seems like a good advise consisdering my 97 9kCSE has 62k miles on it. However, having said this the core on my 92 9k lasted for a 100k. I have three questions for this board.
1) Is this a DYI job? I tried looking at quasi's site for what is supposed to be a good write up, but it's down due to bandwidth. Next I looked at a site by Townsend imports http://216.78.172.244/climate_control_folder/9000heatercore.htm that states that I should disconnect the refrigerant lines to the evaporator. If that's the case it's definitely not a DYI job.
2)Do I need to drain the coolant from the system if I replacing the heater core?
3)I found the parts on http://www.allsaabparts.com. Does anybody have any experience with them?
