The ones at bottom I would work them loose then with them removed then work the other 2 loose so you can turn them down part way at least to unbolt the rods. one way would e to with a wood block put a plate over it to fit the head bolts and tighten them down to put tension on the pistons and squirt some diesel fuel in the cylinder. Let set over night. In the morning look at the cylinder it might have moved some or might have emptied out from the fuel. Either way you can now tighten the bolts some more if they are not as tight as the night before. Take sledge hammer and tap the plate with it. Don't have to hit hard since you have pressure on the pistons already. Will probably need this a few times as it works loose. Once losse turn down so you can get to bolts. Much easier on the engine block and parts. And less likely to damage the crank or rods.
