Looking for engine swap tips

Hi guys i have done a couple searches trying to find some information to help with an engine swap that i have recenetly began. I have a 90 n/a, with a blown motor that im swapping another 90 13b into. Any articles that i could read with some input would be great. it took forever to free up the wiring, and if i had know then what i know now i could have saved 3-4 hrs. So now im looking for any advise to make things go as smooth as possible putting the other engine back in. I know its the opposite as removal, but im looking for the inside scoop, thanks Jay

if youve got the motor out of the car, the one your putting in that is, port it, mod it, rebuild it, do EVERYTHING to it while its out of the car, that will save you days of work later...

There is really no help we can offer?
It's basically "remove and replace"?
Any information you would need is in the Mazda FSM.

I guess it would help you have piece of tape and label all the plugs and hoses?
