Avoid pulling the head with any heat in it whatsoever. It will warp like a pretzel. If you pull it after work, get a ride to work that morning. That way you can work on it when the motor is dead cold.
Also, the head might be stuck to the block. Hit it a few times with a rubber mallet. Avoid prying it or you might hurt the mating surfaces.
Like pulling an engine, be methodical and patient.
Good luck.
JD
