Question How long to do a complete engine swap?

I just recently bought a new motor as mine has sadly hydrolocked. How much shop time am I lookin at to pull, switch accessories, and drop in the whole new motor?

Thank youu.

I would say a day or 2 if everything is smooth. If a bolt breaks or threads cross, that can delay things. good luck with the swap.

I think it took me like 9 hours to do mine at work. It's a pretty simple engine to replace, I have no experience with Chevys and it only took me one day at work.
