Need advice swapping an engine

I'll be doing this solo. I will rent a hoist from Autozone (because you can rent for free with a $200... ouch... deposit).

I'm going to refer to my manuals for detailed instructions, but I need any advice I can for the upcoming swap.

What tools will I need?

Is it going to be difficult doing it by myself?

Anything to look out for?

What do I need again for that pin that holds the shift linkage in?

are there any "how to's" on the internet?

Anything else you can think of?

This swap will be a big one. Not only will I be going from DPFI->MPFI, but I'll also go from obd0 to obd1. Lots and lots of wiring, as well as all of the joys of the new engine/transmission.

Advice needed as the day approaches.
