if you're doin it at a shop with air tools, then no more than 3 hours considering you'll have a lift. Its pretty damn easy man, my homie just finish his d swap in about that time frame in his garage though. As long as you know what to do then there should be no delays. Take the axles out, shift linkage, and mounts is all there is too it, a basic socket set will accomplish all these. Just make sure you change the water pump and timing belt before swapping a new motor in.
