It is easy to do in well under two hours. Get some new hold-down clips from the dealer as they usually shatter. I don't think I even pulled the fan, just remove the shroud and move it toward the motor and hang it on the fan. That was for my M60 motor, YMMV.
Also, put in new hoses while you are there, possibly a new t-stat and housing if plastic, and I do the water pump at the same time, since on the M60, all these parts fail within a year of each other. Ask me how I know. Good luck,
