Hi RPM,
I've always managed to hand lift the engine and gearbox complete in and out of my Nippy on my own. This avoids the hassle of trying to line up the splines on the gearbox when you've not got quite enough hands.
I also find it easier to take off the deep finned Nippy sump and fit a standard "tin tray" one with a couple of bolts to protect the bottom face of the crank case to give you better clearance. It also helps to take off the gearbox top too for the same reason.
Hope that helps a bit?
Best wishes,
Nick
