Same thing I was going to suggest. It only takes an hour or so to get a 6 cyl out, and it is so much easier to get done right the first time. Plus the engine and engine compartment can be cleaned up, plus there might be other problems that could be attended to while the engine is out.
Get a couple friends, fire up the grill, stock up on favorite beverages and make a weekend out of it.
