You have an SOHC, I have a DOHC.
Download the service manual and read that over. That'll tell you what you need to know. Also, you may need a special tool to lift the cam up to get the shim out. It's all of $5 or so.
Mine was relatively easy; yours is going to be much more difficult. Do some investigating before you remove the valve cover so you know precisely what you're dealing with, and can head off any frustrations early.
Turbos, Hondas, 4-bangers, what could go wrong?

Shiny: [...] Considering the weather you've had to put up with I'd say you get an Iron Butt award and a Frozen Nipple trophy to go along with it. First time I've ever posted the word nipple... it ends here.
