Default 0366 went for a ride

Well, I took the Mustang out to a body shop for the first time on Saturday.

I've never pulled the drive train on a Mustang before, what is it like? I'm a little more used to removing and working on 440's and 383's in full and mid size Mopars. Is it easier to pull the engine and trans together? Then all I need to do is decide what to do about the engine, I'd like to free up a little power while keeping it stock looking. I was thinking of having the exhaust manifolds extrude honed and ceramic coated. I'm pretty sure that my car has about 115k on it, will it be worth tearing into the 302? So far it seems to run better than it has a right to, with 157 HP.

Also, how hard is it to remove the door glass?
