that doesnt seem too bad as its your first time doing it and in a driveway. I will be pulling mine in october for a v8 swap and i hope to get it out in a weekend. I will be pulling off the fenders along with the rest of the front end though.

I got mine out and in within 2 days (after swapping all the manifolds and drill/tapping the knock sensor), but that's as far as it sits... partially bolted to the bellhousing.... in a couple weeks i'll be back down to hopefully get the rest of it in and running... only things broken was the starter solenoid bolt snapped and I lost the cruise cable clip
