John, its me, James Anderson who has the problem with the cylinder head, hence my revival of this interesting and frustrating subject! The whole car is very original and it is its undisturbed authenticity that's now posing a big problem. It almost seems as if the head is rusted on to the block but from past experience, it is probably stuck by one or more rusty studs, hence my possible proposal to remove one or more studs. But that's me in patient mode! Anyway, am done for the day and welcome any useful tips. Jone E is being very supportive via private emails and his solution of taking the block off and hitting the head from inside etc maybe the final solution.
