Are you simply swapping out the transmission with another?
I'd just done this exact job, the exact vehicle, not more than six weeks ago.
I didn't keep records of time but am thinking four hours R&R for the swap.
I replaced the clutch, reworked a number of things that required attention as long as the floors were removed, etc. But again, just to R&R the trans, no more than four hours.
