Had same problem with my Super A. I loosely screwed a bolt into every threaded hole in the head. Then placed a 2 by 6 over and across the engine. Then took some twine and looped this from one bolt, over the 2 by 6, to the next bolt. Then over the 2 by 6 again to bolt number three. Using all bolts and other "protruding things" like the rock shaft, coolant inlet, etc. I weaved a whole cob web. The 2 by 6 was supported on one end and I lifted the other end with a jack, putting the cob web under tension. While hitting the head with a wooden mallet, the head finally came loose, undamaged! Clear as mud? Too bad I didn't take a picture :-(
HTH, Hendrik
