I did that job in my parents' driveway with an engine support beam made out of a 4"x4" and a Harbor Freight transmission jack. It took a couple of weekends, not working particularly hard, and I also changed the rear main seal while I was in there. I didn't have to take the engine out, just lowered it on the transmission side. The worst part of the job was taking off the subframe. It was pretty straightforward, and I can't imagine any competent mechanic not being able to do the job.
I don't know what the book time is on a job like this, but someone else probably knows.
