you can slide a bolt 1/2 way back through the cam cap and put a side to side motion on it. keep working with them and they will come off.

you just have to tap them back and forth with a mallet a few times...the dowel pins hold them in there pretty good.

rubber mallet or wiggeling, then you take the cams out (don't forget to set everything to TDC) and then undo the had bolts and then lift the head off/.

Rating 1-10. How hard is it to assembly a bottom end? What is the difficult part?

dude no offense but if you had that much trouble getting the caps off, then dont try a bottom end. i can get a head off in no time but i wont touch a bottom end.....i guell i dont have the confidence yet.

Re: How do you get this head off??? (boosted_dc2)
it's all very easy to dissasemble, its assembly thats the harder part. (which isn't that hard if you are read about it and have confidence in yourself.
difficulty is probably a 8.
If you dont know what you are doing, you will fail.
