engine pull suggestions?

[shifty]

came home after work friday, spent about an hour tearing down all the wiring and draining all the fluids out of the L6. tonight, spent another 3 hours taking off the hood (tough to do alone without wrecking it), unbolting the tranny linkage, removing the starter, alternator and brackets, hoses, carb + intake, headers, unbolted it and i'm ready to pull...

so, on to the question: i wanna yank the L6 and the 3spd tranny all at the same time. is this recommended while the front clip is still on the truck? is it even possible?

i have a choice - remove the 4 bolts to the bellhousing and yank the engine right now, or remove the driveshaft and two tranny mount bolts and pull it all.

suggestions?

here's a picture of my progress
