Engine removal how to

So does anyone have a tutorial on engine removal? Can't find one anywhere. Plan on yanking my tired 305 and dropping in a blueprint engines 355 crate. Since the tranny will be coming out with it, I'm replacing that too. Im going to have a shop reinstall. I'm trying to save some money by taking the old engine out and removing parts I will use on the new one (carb, intake manifold, distributor, etc). Thanks in advance

Re: Engine removal how to

Probably cheaper to let the shop remove it so they'll know where everything goes when they go to reinstall.

Drain all the fluids
Disconnect everything attached to the engine
Remove anything that may be in the way (rad, hood, etc)
Remove engine
