Yes, its quite easy to get to and do. Think the hardest bit will be finding a good one that don't cost you £200!

Bit of a gamble with scrappy, but you'll probably be ok. Look for a motor that aint had a front ender and strip off yourself to be safe. Did you find a guide for doing it on here? Check out Haynes mate, think hardest bit would be bleeding....
