Head installation question

I don't know how on earth you can juggle "all that" and a heavy cast head at the same time. No way will I or would I have attempted that. How would you get 8 pushrods all corralled long enough to get the head on?
You set the head on and get a bolt started in each end and ease it on down while lining everything up as it goes. :D
Sounds like fun don't it?
