Any advice is much appreciated!

Very easy to do. Remove the a/t dipstick tube, unbolt the hard brake line that is bolted to the inside of the frame on rt side, unbolt the starter and it comes right out the pass fenderwell. You will need to push the brake line out of the way which in no biggie since you can bend it right back. You will also need to wriggle the starter around a bit till you get the right position, it wont be difficult tho. Easy stuff
