Its pretty easy, just make sure to label all connections you remove, remove all of the old gasket material, and torque the new heads correctly, oh and buy new head bolts!

Try and get someone who has done this before to at least look over your shoulder. It's not that hard, but there's lots of little questions you might throughout the whole thing.

buy some fuel line removers, get the kit from kragen, that's the only real PITA part of a head swap to me.
