First Swap Where to Start?

First Swap Where to Start?
So I have a knocking rod in my D16y7, bought a D16y7 from an HX with a Vtec-E Head. Think is I am not knowledgeable on how to do the swap.
I have read tons of stuff went through tons of dead links and text's with no pictures.
My car has AC and PS, now the real question is where do I start? What do I remove to get the engine out? Do I just start randomly ripping apart headers and wires?
I will have a hoist to take the engine out but what do I have to start removing to get the engine free?
Also with the other engine should I be opening it up to clean the pistons etc? What should I do to clean it or just drop it in?
Feel free to link me to information pictures would be great, seems like a big hassle to my sorry, I just don't know where to start.

Re: First Swap Where to Start?
I'd go your model/year subforum and check the FAQ/Stickies.

That's the '92-'00 EG/EK subforum. Should be able to find some engine swap articles in there that detail the process.
