Default Re: Head removal

My dad used to tell a story about trying to pull the head on a '29 Graham-Paige he had. He finally used a cold chisel and broke the head into a a bunch of chunks, each of which was easily removed, except for the one with the bolt in the middle. I'm not saying that's the problem, but I thought it's a good story anyway.
