Default New Member- 318 Head problem

Hi All!

I decided to buy a 1999 318 off a friend of mine know that it needs a rebuild. I needed a project. But I have come to a stand still as I can not get the heads to come off. I have taken the intake off, the headbolts are all out. But I cannot get the heads to separate for the life of me. I have tried prying, prying while tapping with a hammer and no movement at all. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for any help.

Make double sure you got ALL the bolts. Then, put a pry bar in one of the center intake ports, and give a couple yanks. It'll come off.
