Default Dropping K frame NEED HELP ASAP!!!!

Alright, so currently i'm sitting in my shop with the manifolds off the car - probably the first time in the history of this cars 138k miles that this has been done. However this has also already been attempted before and as a result the alum heads had a bolt broken off into the front and the back. . . .someone did not take care of this car - so now i have to drill these out however i've never dropped a car from its k-frame does anyone have a good guide on how to drop the motor out of an lt1? - thanks

Nick

Got the motor out of the car, i'll post pictures up here in a few - that was a helpful guide took me about 1-2 more hours being i've never done this before but it was pretty damn simple in the end.

Thanks!
