I'd say you should be able to knock it out in 3-4 hours as long as you have a halfway decent knowledge of what your doing and nothing breaks. You need to remove the intake, intake piping, spark plugs, wires, ect ect so as long as your careful you should be ok.

so its fairly straight forward and not to complicated?

Without the wire wheeling of the cover, I'd say it's about a 3 hour job with the right tools and a casual work pace.
