Hi there,

If you have never do this type of work before, i would highly recommend that you go get a work shop manual, this will give you all the information in a step by step guide with plenty of pics to assist you, also it will advise eon all tooling needed to do the job, with the heads off you will need to have both checked out by an automotive machinist as there can be hidden problems that will cause you headaches if they are not pick up and repaired with the heads removed.
