I suggest that you get a manual. There are many aspects of the job. Torque values. Replace parts vs reuse parts, valve timing etc. On the other hand you move everything out of the way. This includes removing intake and exhaust manifolds. You need to observe everything carefully. To remove exhaust manifold you must first disconnect exhaust pipe. Since engine is an overhead cam you must disconnect timing chain from the head. Remove valve covers, unbolt head bolts in the correct order so head doesn't warp. Completely remove old head gasket and prepare surfaces for new gasket. Put everything back the right way and your done.
