    if you want to equate a VALVE ADJUSTMENT to assembling a head, then thats your judgement LOL.

    .007 on the intake
    .008 on the exhaust is factory service limits.

    a service manual will tell you how to adjust them

    10mm valve adjustment tool
    19mm socket (for the crank pulley)
    small flat head

    these are the main items you'll be needing, but yeh, its harder to explain it than to just show someone.

    You should have it done by an experiened professional. Overtightening will cause burnt exhaust valves and a pricey repair. I just did a burnt valve job on an 04' S2000 and it cost the guy $1500 total.
