What kind of motor? If you have a D-series, no you won't have to remove any of the valvetrain. B-series, you will have to remove some of it to access the head bolts. I highly suggest getting a factory manual, http://www.helminc.com

You dont have lifters.. Since its a d series motor you just take the valve cover off and you will see the head bolts.. There are 2 sensors on the left side of the motor that you will need to unplug.. Pull the dizzy off.. Pull the timing belt off and take it out..

Oh and pull all the stuff of the intake manifold and pull of the exhaust manifold.. I find it eaiser to just pull the head off with the intake still on the head..
