You need to get yourself a shop manual. Those questions are so basic, we don't really want to cover them in detail here. A Haynes or Helms manual will describe it in sufficient detail to get you through it. Be sure to take pictures of things before you start disassembling and while in the process, and label everything as you remove them.
It could be said that if you have to ask questions like that, then you're probably over your head with an engine swap. But, you have to start somewhere, so if you're willing to bone up with the shop manual, and be disciplined as you go through the process, you can get there.

Yeah a shop manual would be best. Aslo at the top is a v-6 to v-8 sticky. Plus you have hundereds of people to help you on this board.
