I'd imagine it's all easy mate, but I don't think you'll be able to attach the power steering pulley yourself.

Just bolt the power steering pump into the bracket, attached to the head. Connect the two hoses. Fill with power steering fluid.

I'm not sure on the proceedure of getting the fluid circulating through the system properly on first run.

You need a tool to get it off and to get it back on. Its the same one to do the water pump pulleys on EF onwards.
