I did this job a few years ago on my '84 turbo and, if you've never removed your engine/transmission, you should plan on three or four weekends' work. One key is finding a junkyard that'll make you a package deal. I got everything I needed for $500. Another key is making the most of your work, replacing engine seals, head gasket, ball joints, alternator bushings, water pump, etc., while they're easy. Mark Jeter's instructions on the transmission swap are excellent and you should have few problems if you have the right tools and parts.
