If its anything like an lb7 its a real pita but very doable with limited mechanical experience. Just takes time, patience, and a few makeshift tools.
I'm pretty mechanically inclined just ne'er been that deep in my truck other than transgo jr. In the tranny.
It's really pretty easy if you use the right tools.
If you hook a ratchet strap to the brace under the hood by the fuse box and put the strap around the wrench and use that to break the up-pipe bolts loose it's smooth sailing from there.

Had a thread about turbo removal called"just three bolts" there is everything you need to know in there!
It really is pretty simple with the right tools. Just need some long ratchets so you can some ass on the up pipe bolts.:thumb:
