Don't know of any - but the general procedure would be the same as on an oilhead. Few more bits to remove.. the basic design is pretty much identical.

Might I ask why the cylinder head needs replacement?

Head has to come off as dropped on left side and one of the valve cover bolts broke half of its mount it screws into on head, thinking should be able to get it welded and tapped.. ( prefer to keep the original head as near new). cheers
