A subframe engine drop using your new car lift would be a cake walk... Set jackstands under the subframe lift points, disconnect all plumbing and electrical, then the attach bolts for subframe assembly Lift the car off the engine. Repeat in reverse to install replacement.

Great buy, if only for the parts to convert a nice 300D turbo to a 4 speed. And despite what Marshall said, the combination works really well. Regarding the loss of boost when shifting, this is nonsense. Turbo gas engines with manual transmissions have this much worse than 617a would have it.
