It's really not difficult taking a head off. Just make sure you have all the torque specs and a WORKING torque wrench. I helped my buddy put his head back on once, the next day we found out the torque wrench was off by a lot. Had to redo the whole thing.

You can prolly figure it out on the fly, but you should be able to search for a write up as well.

Try this - search for Helmes manual for your car. Download it and go from there.
It's not difficult. Just make sure you know what you're doing with timing.

Errmm... yea theres a Walk-Thru floating around here somewhere.... I think I have it on my favorites on my other SN. Give me a sec.

Edit: Here you go. It's a pretty simple procedure if you have a bit of "wrench experience". https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1062140
