<VV> Stuck valve cover bolt. / Head Removal

[Seth Emerson]

The sheet metal (upper and on the ends) on that side will have to come off. Note the seal to the body, be careful. The carb and the fuel line and linkage, at least on that side. You will remove the pushrods and the tubes as well. The pushrod tubes have to be popped out of the case, it is just easier if they are removed entirely. Depending on the year, and the side of the engine, you might have to drop the back end down enough to clear the frame rail. Drivers side means the oil cooler probably has to come off.

Hi, so I have the rockers off and the stud nuts off.  See picture.The head
isn't budging though so I am wondering what else I have to take off to get
the head loose?

There a 9/16"  headed bolt inside the heater duct...
