There are two schools of thought:

1) Remove the engine downwards - drop it out from under the car
complete with gearbox.

2) Unbolt the engine from the bellhousing and lift it up and out leaving the bellhousing still attatched to the gearbox in the car.

Just type "engine removal" in the bottom line of the Search Box
over to the left of the screen by moving the cursor arrow over there above the A of the tiny "Advanced" and clicking once to clear that box - then type in engine removal.

All that is known about engine removal, on this site will be listed for you to read through.

PS: I'm a drop it out the bottom man myself - but it does require the front of the car to be lifted about three feet into the air to clear the engine/gearbox unit and allow it to be slid out from under.

Let's know how you get on.
