Alot of tools and a lift, and a engine hanging rig. The entire front cradle assembly (frame) has to come out of the car, not a DIY project. Engine must be supported and hung from above while the cradle is dropped, then the trans can come out

Dont think they are interchangeable. Might want to call a salvage yard to confirm, they have cross-reference books that say what will and wont go
