I have a craftsman and I use a 3/4" piece of conduit that is about 16" long as a cheater bar. It is just a little too small to slip on and has to be pounded on which is nice because it stays that way. I generally just leave it on there.

Maybe I'm missing something here, but I'm just an average size/strenght guy, and I have removed three 603 heads with just my 1/2" drive Craftsman ratchet, ... one of them in a junkyard.
Are they supposed to be tougher than that or are the cast-iron heads what's being discussed here?
