Very likely that you have a few bent valves. Remember to mark and tag (maintain original order/location) cam towers/bearing caps if you decide to take things apart.

Yes you will have bent valves.
The head is pretty easy to get off.
The Valves are a little expensive but if you got the car cheap then it will be worth it.
