Just put the engine/gearbox in the car. I always wonder how many accessories you can put on it while it's out of the car. Here's what I got to.

Rear deck lid off, engine/gearbox balance to be 10-20 degrees tilting forward, headers laying ready (still connected to rest of exhaust), engine separated from car at 4 bolts going into block-not the one bolt:
-Alternator+bracket+damper+fan belt: yes
-A/C, don't know, left it in the car so not to have to refill
-distributor cap: no
-distributor: yes, but quite close, a little risky. I have a ½"x4" board protecting the rear window. But risky for the dist itself
-starter: yes
-oil filter: no
-fuel pump: no
-valve covers: yes
-hi rise intake: yes
-carb on top of that: no
-90 degree water pipe: I didn't put it on, maybe
