Power Steering Flush

Power Steering Flush
hey guys, I'm a total noobie at working on my car & am trying to do a power steering flush on my 99 z28. My pump is shot to the point where I barely even have power steering. I ordered & recieved the new pump, but understand I should flush all the previous fluid out of the system (considering that ***** brown/black) before installing the new pump.
I wanna make sure I do this right, which is why I'm turning to LS1tech. So my question is; what do I remove to get all the old fluid out (what lines and where to find them) & the actual process of it before installing the new pump.
Any feedback is appreciated, thank you

OH....before you start the entire process.....step 1......should be, take a plastic garbage bag, and put it on top of the alternator and just tuck it all around it, then if you spill any fluid, it won't get on the alternator when you pop that reservoir hose off.
BUT.....take the bag off before you start the engine to flush it....
