Default who to have swap?

I'm looking for some help here. Never done a swap before but I have all parts needed for the motor to go in. All mounts, correct axles, ECU, shift linkage... The only thing I need to do is extend the O2 sensor wires and temperature sensor wires and have the distributor 8 pin to 9 pin or vice versa i cant remember. then a shop to do the exhaust. I just dont have an engine hoist so i'm SOL. Someone help me out here.

sad to say but i'm holding off and missing my deal on the swap I need to get everything in line and get a total cost. Wish I knew someone to come help me swap i'll buy you food and supply drinks lol then pay you some. I've been calling around and talking to people and it just seems I didnt realize how much added up until I was ready to go through with it. It went from $4200 for the motor and stuff. Then $5075 shipped then for someone to install and a few misc. parts. I found out i'm in way over my head but I am trying to sell everything I can to afford something.
