I said it should take a day.. took all 3 week-end days.. but one day was 
killed with the unplanned spring-perch repair.. we pretty much "did it 
all" today.. we had the 304 out and the seals changed last night.. then 
we yanked the 196 (2.5hrs) and dropped the 304 in (4hrs or more) and then 
"details" (started at 9:30 this morning, I just finished my test drive at 
4am.)

I had to let it rumble in the driveay for a while.. then roared across 
town in search of some extra oil (only had 4 jugs of Quaker handy)..

More details to some..
