Want to renew all valves and lifters

After grinding original valves 20 years ago i FEEL IT IS TIME TO RENEW THE LOT. the lifters and guides are original.

The valves are sticking ( ATF + acetone treatment did not help more than temporarily) and I would like to know what I need. I have the tractor on an island so I would like to make the repair job there.

Can I do the repair job without taking the radiator off? This is a front distributor model.
What sort of valves (and adjustable lifters?, springs etc ) would make sense to order. Engine pistons and all bearings renewed 20 years ago. Tractor in daily summer use on my boat yard.
The valve seats I will be forced to refurbish only with hand electric tools as the tractor is as said on the island.
Must I take out the camshaft?

What other parts will I need?

All comment are most appreciated

Forgot to say this is a Ford 8 NAN model from 1949
 
You would probably be better off is to pull the engine as been suggested. If any machining is required you can take the engine block to your local auto machine shop. Hal
