If you could move the rav 4 out of the garage, you'd have plenty of room to do the engine.. q's is, could you park rav on street?
Or what about your parents house? -- grandparents?
Or, have you considered using your living room/kitchen/bedroom?
Once you've got the bare block down to bits, it's light enough for one person to easily carry.. You could assemble it indoors, then get 3 people to give you a hand to carry it outside again..
Not as hard as it seems, and also building an engine inside does have it's benefits.
As for getting it in, if done right it's a 1 day job to have the engine in the car bolted to the box, and leave the electrical other accessories for later. Hoist hire can be as little as $35 a day, and if you find a place closed on sunday, hire it on saturday and return it on monday for the same price as 1 day.
hope this helps.
