Answer: Suren,
I had mentioned that I do not answer "how do I install..." questions. They are too involved and would take too long. Haynes makes a repair manual for your vehicle. That will provide all the necessary procedures and torque specs. While your head is off, you can check your valve guides and make sure all movements are within spec. The service manual will also provide information regarding head work.
