its not too hard if you have the tools. Ive swapped my valve springs without taking the head off and valve seals are just the next step beyond that. You need an overhead valve springs compressor (mine is for sale), an air compressor and a tube from a compression tester in order to compress the cylinder, some grease to keep the valve keepers in place (this is not as hard as people say), a torque wrench, and a valve steal tool. The job could take just a couple hours and you can upgrade the valve springs while you're at it.

Here are pics of my ITR valve spring/ CTR cam install.
