I've found that Autozone's AllDataDIY site has surprisingly detailed instructions and diagrams for removal & installation of the cylinder head along with torque specs. and related MB technical bulletins.

I am thinking of skipping the 'glow plugs only' on mine and just plan on pulling the head sometime this summer. I'd be interested in hearing your progress. Good luck!
