Got it!!

After patience and perserverance, i got everything off and the head off. appears that valves are sticking and it needs worked on, so i am getting the heads redone and worked on at a machine shop. everything else looks good to me. i'm gonna go ahead and replace timing belt and drive belts as well.............thanks to everyone who helped me and gave me advice. it is greatly appreciated and i hope to help you guys in the future!!

Corey,
I have a 95 Metro that will be needing some head work this spring. When you get yours done, I'd appreciate it if you would post what you had done and what the shop charged you. Good luck on your project!
