well disconnect all electronics and hoses from the block, take the bolts off the tranny bell housing, remove the motor mounts and pull

and drop the new one in

as for tips, mark all the different hoses and wiring with different tags so you know where they go, take your time, its a commiting job and have speedy dry and a fire extinguesher just in case

sometimes beer works (Speaks from previous experience)
