I just had to deal with this.  The surface of the head where the 
intake/exhaust manifolds bolt up sticks out about 1/2" past the engine 
block.  Place the end of an approximately 30 inch wooden 2x4 against this 
"manifold boss", the board will fit between the motor mount and the 
steering rack.  Then, whack the other end of the 2x4 from underneath the 
car with a 3 pound hand sledge.
This technique would have saved me a few hours, had I tried it first.
