There is a tech procedure on this very site that tells you everything you need to know.
From personal experience, here are some other random thoughts:
1. You don't really need a furniture dolly, etc. to get the engine out. A regular heavy duty rolling jack and some pieces of wood (so you don't damage the case) will work. BTDT many times. It helps to have a helper, though, but it is not essential. I've taken the engine in and out many times by myself.
2. You don't need any special tools, other than a clutch alignment tool (less than $10). You do need a torque wrench, but thats not really a "special" tool. You don't need an impact wrench, etc.
3. Its a job that can EASILY be done by the DIYer in one day. But give yourself a weekend.
4. If all you are doing is replacing the clutch (and related components, flywheel, etc.), you don't really need to drag the engine all the way out from under the car, which can save you from having to jack the end of the car WAY up there, which I think is the most hairy and dangerous part of the job.
See the tech article on this site for blow-by-blow details. They use an SC, but the 915 Carrera is basically the same.
