removal of 87 4kq head with EM and downpipe attatched

[Tom B]

Hello All,
Has anyone tried to remove the head from a 87 4kq with the EM and downpipe 
attached? Will it come out of the car?

I am trying to replace the warped head on my 4kq, but I am being fought by 
corrosion, and I do not have a torch to combat it. I have two rusted and 
rounded nuts on the bottom of the EM that I have fought for hours, and all 
that is left of the nut heads on the down pipe is big blobs of rust.

I figure if I can pull the head with EM and downpipe attached, I can get at 
the EM nuts and downpipe studs a lot easier to r&r them. Please tell me I am 
correct, and that the head will come out :-)

As always, TIA,
Tom B
