Brute force. Engine may need tilting forwards / backwards a bit.

If your changing the engine anyway why not just remove that too?

Everything will pretty much need to come out.

Best person to put any questions to would be Scottie i think.

Also remember engine mounts need to be changed possible I think something to do with the gearbox one aswell if its a really old 410.

Well you've gotta use a 413 gearbox anyway so might as well pull the engine and gearbox out at the same time.

It depends how you want to do the wiring really, have you got the complete vitara spi loom?
