I am working on the restoration of a 1930's vintage classic car. I am trying to remove the quite large aluminum heads, each secured to the block with 21 studs, 1/2" diameter. As you can imagine, elec

Some time ago we had a similar problem with an inline 6, got lucky with 3 cylinders that could be pressurized through the spark plug holes. We made up a manifold and got some good valves, used a hyd

Hello Jack, I don't envy you your particular problem however I have one suggestion which may help you out. I have not used this method myself, but have been assured that it really works and in your c

My thinking is that although the pressurizing techniques suggested may get the head "broke loose", you will still have a real challenge getting the head to slide on the 21 studs. I heard of a techniq

I tried to do the same thing, except mine was bolted on- ended up snapping off several bolts flush with the block, one broke off flush with the headsuggest you try double nutting the studs to remove

I've luckily never been in your bind yet, but I've used the "heat aluminum, freeze steel" trick to get bearings seated. Maybe you might have some luck carefully locally heating and cooling the heat/

Uncle Jack have you tried using a penetrant called Kroil made by Kano Chemical down in Tennessee? Best stuff I have ever used. Squirt it on and let it set and soak. Heat up the head with a rosebud. L

I too have had excellent results with Kroil (see http://www.kanolabs.com, as far as I know they only sell it direct), but patience is definitely required. I have just about finished off my current ga

I second the recommendation on Kroil, good stuff. I also second this approach, repetitive heating and cooling and adding penetrant during the cooling has worked for me. Once you get the head off, yo
