You can remove the exhaust mani from the block and leave it plugged up if you like. Just bungy cord it out of the way. You can leave the upper and lower plenum on. And remove the head..., you'll want help removing it. I would remove the fan shroud and the fan and probably drop the alternator just to be on the safe side. Hell. I would remove the radiator, you have to empty it first anyhow. It's nothing to pull out. Climb in and break the head loose. They tend to be a pita. A long a$$'d screwdriver / prybar. Don't fluck anything up.
