Luckily it wasn't harder and didn't longer. You can swing the entire radiator assembly forward and rest it on a chair. Now you have all the access you need to get to the SC. You actually save the time it takes to drain the coolant, remove the radiator, reinstall the radiator, fill and bleed the system. Even if it only takes 10 minutes, I just saved myself 10 minutes.
Also, I swapped out the pulley. Doing this with the SC out of the car makes it effortless.
I just wanted to let everyone know that they can save some time and energy this way.

Thats a good idea to add to the DIY : https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...arger-oil.html
Glad you were still able to access everything, i am glad the oil reservoirs were not dry. That could have been a SC gear shot.
Well done on the work.
