Hello, I am in the process of replacing the head in my 97 with a rebuilt 
one from cylinder-heads.com . old head was running way to much oil 
through valve guides. any ways we have all but one piece switched over 
from old to rebuilt one.  There is a little water outlet on the back of 
the head next to the main water outlet.

Can any one give me some suggestions on how to remove it?   and possibly 
to install it in the newer head?

we have tried heating it and cooling it, but the material transfers 
heat/cold to fast to work it seems (even with torch on head and dry ice 
on the tube)

suggestion from cylinder-heads.com is to tap it back and forth with a 
hammer and use vice grips to twist/pull it. I have not tried this just 
yet (head is in a friends garage right now)


here are a few pictures to show what i am talking about.
