I took mine off but i had to take off front suspension and lower the engine down some using a hoist (LOL that's about half of taking the engine out) If you do this make sure you disconnect the drive line and unbolt the tranny mount or it will bust either one (I did 
) also watch out for ground wire that is bolted on the back of the motor to fire wall, well maybe not

manifold removal
I've been trying to remove the oxygen sensor from the passenger side manifold but can't seem to break it free so in desperation I was about ready to take off the manifold. as Ithink the nabours are starting to get tired of hearing me swear at the car.

I had one that was stuck too, lucky me - I already had cats off ( that's a whole another pain, good old WD-40 helped but you may want to try something stronger I think
Space is pretty limited up there, but workable
Without taking off suspension
Going skin to skin with the car
