Congrats on dropping the engine yourself, it'll get easier and easier each time you do it.
I have a couple comments for you:
1. If your hydraulic table has a 500 lb capacity, pulling your engine and trans at the same time is right at the limit of your table or maybe a little over, depending upon which trans you have; 915 or G50.
2. I have always pulled the eng/trans together, its easier, in my opinion.
3. I use an ATV jack for lowering the eng/trans (small dolly supporting the trans) and I lower the eng/trans with the car close to ground level that way its not at such an angle. Then once the eng/trans is resting on the jack, I lift the car. Using an ATV jack to drop your engine is definitely a one man job; although a helper is always nice.
There are a lot of "while the engine is out" projects you may want to do. I'm sure if you do a search you'll find a list of things.
