Remove head 2H

[zac320]

Hello I'm going to be removing the head on the old 47 tomorrow after work. It's turboed. Can anyone give me any hints or tricks ect. Im just hoping to get any info that will help beforehand as it needs to come off and put back on again in the least amount of time.
Also how long will I need to put aside to pull it? Hopefully finish work early enough!
Thank you

I still havnt got around to this. My trucks been parked up since! Is there a YouTube video on removing a head from a 2h does anyone know? I’ve looked and can’t find one. I’ve bought a workshop manual.

If you haven't removed your head yet, make a point in removing all 26 bolts from the middle outwards in a circular pattern similar to this picture.
Its uncommon, but by removing the head bolts in this pattern removes any chance of cracking or warping the cylinder head.

Okay thanks. I knew about doing them up in a sequence but not removing. Cheers
