I have pulled half a dozen engine/trans combos by my self. It usually takes 5 to 6 hours depending on my level of motivation and the number of rusted bolts. I have never pulled the transmission by itself.
I will be doing one this weekend, and for the first time using a real engine puller instead using a come-along and the center beam of my garage.
It is actually easier than most front engine cars to do.
The key is to jump in with both feet and don't stop until it's out.
Best of luck
