Ok I have confirmed that all 22 head bolts are out, and the smaller hex key bolt from the timing chain galley area are out, and have been the whole time..

HOW much force is required to break the head gasket seal??? I have been using a 16 oz ball pein hammer, with a block of wood.. split the 2X4, and decided that was enough to have broken it loose. . . which is not yet the case.

is this a case of get a bigger hammer?? or could i be missing something?
