Once that hose on the block is removed and out of the way, dare I say this is a pretty simple job. Getting the slave cylinder back in was a snap also.
If I had to do the slave cylinder again and didn't have the engine drained of coolant I'd still do it the same way ... Prior to removing the hose I'd just clamp it off at the hot water valve and be ready with a rubber plug to stuff in the barb fitting on the block. I bet you could get away with minimal coolant loss this way.
