How much work to replace a radiator?

I have a 92 4-Door Honda Civic DX with AT. The radiator is shot and I need to replace it. To save some money, and for a fun project, I'm thinking of doing the labor myself.

I went to the bookstore and looked through the Chilton manual and it looked very straightforward. I'm a mechanically inclined person, but have never done any serious work on a car before.

How many hours do you guys think such a project might take? Are there any tips or suggestions that would come in handy if this is my first real car project? Any special tools to pick up before I start? From the manual it looks like it's just a matter of removing some hoses, plugs, and bolts before the whole thing just slides on out.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Dave
