Stuck Head??

Enz0Enz0 Band Wagon
in Engine & Drivetrain
Okay, Im doin a headgasket job. Ive got all 10 head bolts out, the intake braket off,the timing belt off, and the exhaust manifold off and the head wont even budge, I dont wanna damage anything so I figured I'd ask. Am I missing something, or do I gotta force it off? I have read the shop manuals and besides all the hoses I seem to have gotten everything. Please help ASAP.

    :? I'm not there so I can't say for sure.Remember the head is stuck on a lot harder than the intake or exhaust manifold,weights more & torqed down 3 times harder.There are a few alignment pugs so pry off NOT slide off. .Sounds like you got everything off.Just pry the head off. :)

    There is a pry point to help with this problem...use it and a nice lever.

    Its in the FSM. I don't recall off the top of my head...its usually at one of the corners or ends.
