on jack stands, its more finnicky, but not a huge deal. I you are going to be on jackstands, I highly recommend the harbor freight lift table. basically you just remove your rear bumper, exhaust and wheel the engine out.
Sounds about right. You'll need to get the car up about 24" to clear. Furniture cart will allow you to wiggle it out. Remember to check all of your hoses etc. I remember pulling and swearing for about 20 minutes one time before I realized that I still had a coolant line attached!
