how do i take the head off?
I know this may be a bit bizzare but im really stuck with my old engine, i only got storage until end of this week 
I have my old legacy 2.0 4cam turbo engine i think same as impreza its on a k plate and i really need to remove the cylinder head an cams of it, but i dont know how to go about it. I already got the engine out, manifolds are off so are the cam belts and cam covers from thier on im completly stuck.
Do i need to take the cams out before i can take the head off?
How do i get the cams out, do i need to remove the large wheel at the end of the cam shaft an will it slide out or do i need to remove the shells holding the cam in too?
How many bolts secure the head to the block i can see 3 large bolts under each cam and theres a huge one in the middle of the head are these what secure it to the block?
Also i cant remove the old turbo the bolts really tough to undo, do they go clockwise or anticlockwise and anyone got any tips?
Many thanks

Already posted, thanks for the pointer though! I dont have alot of time on my hands so i thought post in a few different places might help get a better response. But the bolt thing is doing my head and hands in i barely got any skin left on my knuckles becuase i can't get the fookers to turn or if im doing it the right direction. Why arent they simple an logical like ford engines, compaired to when i change the head gasket on my zetec thats a doddle in comparison!
