Advise on Pulling an Engine

[Kenneth]

So I'm pulling my 305 this weekend. I'm renting a engine hoist and getting a couple of friends to help, but known of us have ever done this. So I'm asking for any little advise that the shop manual won't mention. I've pretty much detached everything connected to the engine and transmission, although the transmission coolant lines are still stuck on via a hard to get to bracket. Anything I should do to make this procedure as easy as possible?
Thanks in advance.
