Put it up on stands, drain all the fluids, disconnect all the coolant hoses/pull the radiator, disconnect the vacuum lines, take off the upper and lower wiring harness, pull the drive shaft, disconnect the exhaust manifold, remove the throttle/cruise control cable's, disconnect the clutch slave line, put a jack under the tranny to support it's wieght then take the the tranny cross member loose, hook up a cherry picker to the motor and loosen the motor mounts from the bottom, start pulling the motor up with the picker and then let the tranny down with jack, now just pull it out the engine bay.

If you go back thru my build thread there are at least 2 cases where you can see most of this process.

PS: if you have A/C then u need to disconnect that... when you pop open a line it will come out pretty violently make sure to not be around breathing that shit in while it pollutes the atmosphere.

Ok let me know if ur gonna use them or not cuz I need a front bumper support, not the radiator support but the bumper support which is the part that the styrofoam goes on to hold the bumper up. ALso that back window that Lee gave me is pretty much fucked, I used a steamer to try and get that tint off and the dam tint is not coming off.

I was thinking I would just come and help you with the change over and you just give me that stuff in exchange for the help. I don't have a job right now so there is no way I can pay for it since I paid all my bills with my last check. Also I need some misc nuts and bolts from one of the shells too.
