Default B16A

How do you remove a head of a b16a? I already hane everything disconnected from the head to the block. Also I have the head studs out. The head seems to be froozen on.

for the love of god what did i say
did you losen the bolts in sequence 1/2 turn at a time?
no?
you could have warped the head like that, its very unlikley but THIS IS WHY I SAID GET A HELMS.

and it seems frozen on because of the headgasket, give a couple taps with a mallet to the head, should loosen it up

THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT
DO NOT PRY ON THE MATING SURFACE OF THE HEAD AND BLOCK

you could destroy the head/block
