As far as head jobs in general, any VW 2.0 is pretty easy. Start by picking up a repair manual and checking out the procedure. Said manual also has torque specs that you'll need.

a bentley manuel will be needed , that is for sure. but a head job is really easy . and timing will be very easy since things will be apart. just remember when ** REMOVING THE HEAD REFFER TO MANUEL FOR REMOVAL OF BOLT SEQUENCE AND INSTALL SEQUENCE.***
