i have done this 2 many times this is about a 4 to 5 hour job real easy to do.just move the hood hing up where the hood is straight up and down,remove fan elec. or clutch,i remove the 2 hoses off the p/s pump and the hole bracket with alt.,then take of the intake complete just undo the injector harness and fuel rails put wiring under the windsheild wipers to hold out of the way,then tie your steering wheel so it can not move,then undo the bolt that holds the steering shaft then you can get to the 3 15 mm bolt that hold the motor mounts.you will need to undo the ex.also if you have stock manifolds they can stay on just undo the y pipe.then undo the trans and convert bolts and it is ready to come out.

If not for the list, I would have lost track of the grounds as well - there's more than a couple. Take good notes and you won't have a problem
Good luck

This is good advice
I labled all mine with masking tape and a sharpie in addition to writing it down on paper
ex 1a-1b, 2a-2b ,3a-3b etc
took a little more time but it went back together quick
+ ease of mind knowing everything is correct when marked off the list
is nice
