Default B5 2.8 motor + trans pull

Does anybody know a link or website with step by step instructions to pulling out a 2.8 motor and trans? The motor will probably go to a scrap yard but the trans I want to save. I'll be dropping a 2.7t motor and 6 spd trans into it. I just want to do it right the first time

When I did mine I used a Haynes manual and just went for it. It wasn't too bad really. There was some googling involved. I've heard that the Bentley is much more useful.

There's a .zip file full of pdfs floating around the net, I can't say where to find it but I've come across it a bunch of times. It has about 90% of the information contained in the Bentley manual, just search for b5 service manual in a pdf search engine.

It's my first swap. Pulled a motor out of a 93 impreza. I feel like this is going to be a little more difficult lol. Will update on the build when it gets under way
