Make sure you have few extensions and a swivel really helped me. Once the crossmember is undone, I just let the trans lower as much as it will and then support it with a jack. This will give you more room to get at the upper bolts. I did mine on 2 jackstands both times. Enjoy yourself...most of the stuff is pretty clean and not like the old greasy stuff i'm used to working on. Oh yeah...the flywheel has little holes in it....i stuck a screwdriver thru one and into one of the recesses in the block and that holds the flywheel so you can get the bolts loose.
