There is something on here somewhere , but it's case of disconnect all cables and pipes, rad out the way and drop the subframe with the engine on, I don't think the engine box complete comes out the top, I guess Nodge would confirm this

As I remember you don't need to take the subframe out or the engine. You take of the propshaft and IRD some of the exhaust and front manifold, the throttle housing all pipes and wires, unbolt the converter then the box, hold the engine up and drop the box out the bottom.
