You will need to raise the motor a bit and loosen the engine mounts for the lower shields.

This diagram is your best bet. You just need to get the parts out and puzzle them together. You will find the pieces fall into place.

I put on the "V" shields, plug heat shields, plugs, and routed the plug wires up over the back of the engine with it out of the car. You should not put the other shielding on until the engine is in the car, or the distributor for that matter. It will hit the firewall when installing.
