what year? if your 98 its just as easy as old style but need a tool to hold fan pulley so you can turn fan clutch off. other than that takes me less than 1 hour at work with hand tools no air tools. and i have the fan pulley tool.

drain coolent. remove top half fan shroud. remove fan/clutch. remove pulley.remove hoses.toss old spring clamps replace with worm clamps. remove 4 bolts like old style. clean block and reinstall.

Yeah that job should take less than an hour, I did one on my 98 5.7 in about 40 min...
