Default Any extra time needed to drop a manual trans w/ LT's on it

Is there a big problem in time or any additional time needed to drop a manual transmission from an '02 camaro with longtubes on it w/ y-pipe and cats?

I think its actually less time because I dont think you have to pull the y-pipe. I was up under my car yesterday and the transmission looks like it can fit coming down no problem.

less time, however you need WAY more room from car to ground. The tail of the trans will have to angle down at a pretty steep angle. (depending on your set-up)

I didn't have to touch the exhaust to get my trans out, so less time.

I left my Y pipe attached when pulling my trans out. Jet Hot LTs, QTP Catted Y. Like was mentioned before the car will have to be higher in the air as the trans comes down at a steeper angle than if the Y is removed.
