You have many things bolted to the head that have to be removed or disconnected. If and when you get the head removed, replace the gasket with a new one. You best go to your local library or local auto parts for a Ford service manual. You will need tools. The books aren't always complete so be prepared for some brain storming and other problems. AND - you have to put it all back together again. LOL

Find someone who knows even a little about a car, and they will prolly do it for 50$ and a six pack of beer.
