Default Service Manual + Labor hours to drop engine

All,

Where is a good place to get the shop manual for a GT3?

Also what to expect as time to drop and put the engine back in the car?

Thanks

Not including repair labor, time to drop/remove/reinstall engine is ~ 15 hours based on a few quotes I received. This is probably more than it actually takes but shops often pad for issues, testing, and other things they may encounter.

Keep in mind for a coolant job there is also the labor to undress and redress the engine (tear it down and reassemble) and to do the cleaning/welding/pinning. I believe sharkwerks quotes ~$3k for their pin repair so that gives you and idea of the labor in total, since it's almost all labor. They would need to confirm if extra parts are included in that (I don't think they are).
