Default Heater Core Removal

I've got an '84 5.0 and the heater core went out. Alright I know it sucks, but I have to change it, no way around it. Anyways, I know you have to remove the dash, or at least unbolt it and pull it out a bit, but I wanted to know which screws/bolts needed to be removed in order to do this... There are prolly a hundred screws in this das but they can't all be holding it to the body, so if anyone knows which ones do I'ld appreciate a detailed reply. Thanks.
