Ls1 head removal? Complete removal?

So I snapped a valve cover bolt and now I need to pull the head to have it removed.

My question is can I pull the complete head with rockers etc? Or do I need to remove the rockers?

Please help

Thanks!

remove the rocker arms, to release tension/preload on the valves and push rods.

Plus the rocker stands get in the way of the head bolts, so they kinda have to come out to remove the heads.
