Clutch Change

How long should it take to change the Clutch on a 98 Escort GTi (1.8 Zetec)?

Regards, Kieren

Does the engine have to come out on the Zetec? I have done a CVH mk5 and that didnt need to, but just seen online that the zetec needs to come out, this true?

When you remove the rear passenger mount, Remove the 3 studs in the gearbox to give it room to clear the subframe, This made life easier for me,
