[alfa] stuck cylinder head



I got some good advice about constructing and using a factory type puller
to get the stuck cylinder head off my GTV engine. One correspondent has
pulled
the threads from the spark plug holes using the tool, so I plan to use a
torque wrench. Can anyone suggest a torque setting for this operation?
Spark plugs take about 24 lb-ft, but I imagine that it will take more than
that to
move the head.
Thanks,
