removing motor, what to disconnect from motor to tranny?

ok, i finally got enough time to pull out the 305 from my firebird, I know how to unbolt the motor and hoist it, etc, but one question lingers in my mind... unbolting the tranny, i've removed the dust cover but what am I going to remove exactly in order for the tranny to be free from the motor??

first youll need to remove the converter bolts through the dust sheild youve already removed theres 3 of them youll need to turn the motor over by hand to get to them the converter should be pushed back into the trans so it dont try to ride out with the motor when done there you need to take out the bolts from the bellhousing of the trans to the block and dont forget to support the trans when you separate them thats all i can think of off the top of my head if separating the motor/trans is your only question
