Buy a roll of masking tape, a black sharpee, a note book and a cherry picker.  Label all connectors, take notes and pics if you need, and swap it yourself.  Super easy to do in a very short time

This ^^^ And I bought a box of manilla envelopes and used pieces of cardboard with holes poked in them in the shape of what I was removing and with a description  like this:

Upr motor L *                  upr motor R (dont forget brkt) *

Lwr motor L *                       Lwr motor R*
I had a stack of cardboard pieces with bolts for every component and a description of it when I was done

Pressure washer or clean everything BEFORE you label stuff

It really isn't that hard, being that all the hoses and wires have a couple hundred thousand miles on them they are pretty baked, they want to go back where they came from!
On that note check All your coolant hoses and fittings around your intake. A few of mine where pitted almost all the way through. They are a pain to get to when everything is back together.
You have most of the hard stuff done already with the 22reperformance  motor and Shiney new bolts that you don't have to keep track of.
