Actually not a drastic change at all. The ducted fan was always a bolt 
on mounted to the engine. Just unbolt the ducted fan and put on the 
psru. I had to remove the big flywheel nut and flywheel with the engine 
on the airframe, but that wasn't difficult with the big Mazdatrix wrench 
and another long lever bolted to the flywheel pushing against the floor. 
Had to cut a hole in the lower cowl for the starter to protrude through 
at the 6 oclock position. And route the oil lines. That's about it.
