I will tackle this late summer/early fall (I've got 87K), and I think having the right tools is critical. So, I got:
1. Valve spring compressor (expensive , $160)
2. Pin remover for chain guides ($60)
3. A "lid" hinged device that screws on over the front cam bearing holding the chain down - this is supposed to make this a one-man, no-chain falling into the engine job - $60.
In the hopes of doing the valve stem seals, I got installers (2 sizes, $25 ea) and some pliers.
Even considering this, I hope to be money ahead. Besides, I might rent these out.
