as it is very complicated to explain I suggest (if you are a good mechanic) go buy a haynes manual you can get them at any auto parts store. It will give you a step by step process on how to do this. It is a very hard job because when you do get the head off you have to check to see if the head is worped or cracked. when you get back together you have to recheck the the valve clearance. This is a very time consuming job to get it done right. If you don't know what you are doin I suggest you spend the money and send it to a certified mechanic. This is not a job than can be accomplised in just a few hours.
