Default Anything I need to watch out for?

I am going to be pulling the engine in my car and I have heard that there may be some sensors or something that I need to be careful not to move or anything. Does anyone know anything about this or anything that I should look out for while pulling it?
Thanks

The two senors on the bellhousing/flywheel. You only need to pull the sensors out and if you have a late car there should be a sleeve that goes into one of the holes also. That needs to come out too, but don't remove the bracket from the block. It ha a set depth on it and if you pull it you'll have to reset the depth. Good luck

The car is an early model (83)
So the sensors will just come out of the brackets? Thanks for the tip. Anything else that needs special attention?

Thanks again

PS. Will the block be able to get machined, if need be, with these brackets still attached? If not, what would the depth need to be and any idea how to set it?
Thanks

If your going to pull the motor. Do yourself a favor. Replace the heater core. Engine out of the car it will be a realitive breeze, engine in the car...

Well I just spent 4 hours trying to get the hoses on and couldn't do it.
