if they're both the same engine it should be pretty straightforward. make note of what you unplug from where, masking tape with letters or numbers helps.

yea they are both the same engine. is there a specific place where i should start?

as was said, label everything. masking tape and a permanent marker will take you a long way. a decent shop manual should be all you need. in addition ...

1. be patient. take your time.
2. be somewhat gently with wire connectors. they are pain in the ass to fix and they can and do break during disconnection at times.
3. i always replace bolts to the holes they come from (and nuts to their studs) so (A) they don't mixed and (B) they don't get lost. a few extra minutes will save you frustration, and in some cases, possible failures.

i'd start with disconnecting the wiring first.
