not hard at all, just takes time and effort.

www.installuniversity.com has a good writeup on swapping a clutch in an ls1 car.

I was in your shoes a little over a year ago. I just followed that write up step by step and it wasn't bad at all. A lift is a definate plus but I've done it on jackstands a few times now.
