Removing heads from a 350

This is probably a dumb question, but when removing heads from an engine, is it nessary to remove the rocker arms and pushrods first, or should it just come off with some coaxing? Also, when reinstalling afterwards do the rocker arms need to go back into the same old location or does it not matter? Thanks in advance.

loosen the rocker arms,take the pushrods out in order to be safe (and place them in or,masking tape whatever) then it should just lift off
you might have to pry a lil ,get a manual or ask a shop for install procedure

did you remember the torque of the bolts?

If you dont get the correct torque, your screwed.

Is it still 85lbs-ft even though i changed the springs from 80lbs to 100lbs to work better with my cam?
