Help!  Last week-end I blew the head gasket on my '75 TR6.  This week-end I
am trying to remove the head.  I believe I have all of the stuff off of it
that needs to come off.  Even the studs are screwed out. I've turned the
engine with the starter and hit the head pretty hard with a hammer (no
relitive).  I'm using a regular hammer and a block of wood so as not to
damage.  Rather than get the sledge out and really have a go at it I thought
I would ask for suggestions.  I seem to remmember putting a rope in a spark
plug hole and letting that pry the head up?  Before I get too creative and
cause irreparable damage, I think I'll wait for advice from someone who
knows.  Thank you in advance.
