fortunately i'm in the process of putting mine back together. this is very basic so if you need more details just ask.

set cylinder 1 to tdc
disconnect all sensors,injectors,ignition coil,belts......
remove intake and exhaust manifolds
remove valve cover
loosen & remove rocker arm bolts as stated in the fsm
loosen and remove head bolts as stated in fsm.

it's a good idea to have some scotch tape and a pen handy so you can label the plugs, wires, and vacuum lines that you'll need to remove so you know where they go. i didn't but i think i still remember where everything belongs.

only on step 1 and we've already ran into problems i see.
you can cheat and not set the #1 cylinder IF you make sure that the crank, cam, and distributer are not moved at all during or after the process of removing the head. whoever i'd advise against that if your knowledge it limited you'd be better off having someone help.

but if you're up to it knock yourself out

not if it's not warped, or damaged. it can be machined if it's not warped too bad.
