That's good, you can practice on the spare engines.
When you say "get lucky" do you mean get lucky finding the required tools, or get lucky doing the job without them?
If you're looking for luck finding the tools, you will eventually, they are out there if you have time to wait. Best to make note of the specific Volvo tool numbers you need and watch eBay closely, searching on those numbers, that's where they show up. Sometimes cheap, sometimes not.
But if you're thinking you might get lucky doing the job without them, think again!
One thing for sure: don't take it apart until after you have *everything* you need to put it back together. Nothing worse than tearing down a piece of good running equipment and only afterwards discovering that you have to search/wait for an unknown amount of time to get the things you need to make it work again.
