Disconnect your battery

Drain as much of your coolant as possible.

Remove your carb, kickdown to intake linkage, intake etc.

Remove the ground from the front of the head, the exhaust manifold, possibly from the pipe too if you need to.

Remove the valve cover, then the rockershaft assembly.

Take the pushrods out and make sure you mark or put them in an order so they go back to the right lifter AND the correct end down (I like to do that anyway).

Loosen your head bolts but try not to remove them, so you don't get them mixed up, some coolant will probably spill down into the cylinders. Take the head off, you may need to wack the sides gently with a rubber hammer, or there may be a tang you can't pry from a little with a big flatblade screw driver.
