I've done it, its not too hard, you have to do the following.

remove your motor mount bolts (the big ones that go through the mounts)
jack up the motor some
unbolt your kmember (6 bolts, 3 on each side) and pry the kmember down a little
take out the oil pan bolts
drop the oil pan down, remove windage tray also
then you have full access to all of the connecting rods, you will have to spin the motor over to get at all of them.

Its a few hour job your first time for sure.

Oh, and you will need a good torque wrench and other tools to do this job, I assume you already know that though.
