Model A-B Head Puller
 

A friend asked if I could make some head puller for his Model A. I made some drawings, and this is how it ended up. Hope it will work.

looks very nice.

You do know that you can pop the head by taking the head nuts off and turning the engine over.

Great idea. I'm surre that works pretty good especially if the head gasket was assembled using a lot of gasket sealer. In that event the head poping method only moves the head enough to release the combustion or compressed air. If you don't mind, I would like the dimensions so I can make one myself. Thanks. Don/WI

Try "Gord's Easy Head Puller" made only in one piece with a 100% history removal.

The first "puller" I rigged up in the early 80's used an old head to act as the 2 hunks of iron shown here. My design from 82 is now made by Bill Stipe and sold by most dealers. It is simple, effective and weighs just 5 lbs.

Yes... I know it was a little overkill, but my only ambition was to always keep the head puller plate perpendicular to the spark plug threads.

Thanks Carl, I did not have a pix handy. Always more than one way to do a job. My wife sez there are 3 ways, the right way, the wrong way and Rons way! I like to think the simple way is best.

If you take two old spark plugs and weld a T with one side longer then the other you can lift the head off after popping it loose.
