My best shot(from St Cloud) Cut three strips of 1/2" thick steel that will just fit between the valve springs where the three rocker stands are bolted down. Each should be long enough to go back to the rear of the head and rest on the rim of the valve cover rib, and long enough to cover the head bolt holes shown lining up with them. Drill a hole in each for a grade 8 bolt to screw well into the rocker stand holes shown in the pic. Put in three head bolts in those three holes, but do not tighten them, leave them 1/8" loose. Now put in the metal strips, and sequentially tighten the Grade 8 bolts. If it still will not budge, and with the force on it, I would drive old Cheap knives (Pawn shop stuff) into the head gasket to begin the fracture process along the port side of the head. Not the point, the flat part of the blade struck on the back edge. Good luck, JimN
