Almost everyone has suggested that I remove all of the studs then try to
remove the head. So I headed home and gave it a try. I used two nuts
screwed together to unscrew the studs. This worked fine on 7 out of 10
of the studs. The last three are really stuck. I spray some PB blaster
on them and walked away. I really don't want to break one of these studs
off in the block. That could only make my problems worse.
My questions is this, just how much force can I apply to the studs before
breaking them becomes an issue? Or if someone has a better idea on how to
get them out let me know. Anyway thanks for all of the advice on getting
this apart.
Bill
