    <p>There are 8 nuts for the manifolds - 4 across the top, one each
      at the front and rear of the exhaust manifold down a bit lower and
      a pair under the manifolds.</p>
    <p>You can see the studs for 6 of them here, the rear exhaust bolt
      is under the rear bracket at the bottom.  The front exhaust bolt
      goes through a hole just above the little ear on the left of the
      water pump.</p>

    <p>I'd be nervous about the rope trick if you want to keep the
      liners in place.  I think that's better used if you're going to do
      a full rebuild so will be removing liners later.  An alternate
      version is a way to hold valves in place while they are serviced
      with the head on the engine though.</p>
    <p>I've always needed to pull the rocker shaft to get to the head
      studs under the rocker shaft, but if you can remove them without
      pulling the rockers that's OK too.  I'd be happier with the rocker
      shaft off and the pushrods pulled out (be careful doing that so
      you don't pull out a tappet - although with the head off it's easy
      to put the tappet back).  There are 10 head bolts / studs.</p>
    <p>Cheers, Tony<br>
