   why would you want to do that, best way would be to use one of them crane things wouldent it, and get it done properly

   I would say through the top with one of those cranes mentioned. I have only heard and seen an engine come out through the top and not the bottom and would say that is definatly the easier way in my opinion. Somebody will correct me if I'm wrong.

   easiest way is through bottom on saxo as battery tray gets in the way.

   Bottom definatly easiest way and not have to worry about knocking the engine on the body pannels.
