How to remove head locating pins?
I going to have my block decked and I can't get the head locating dowel pins to come out. It's a 89' 22r block (22re head).
I've soaked them with PB Blaster and then use a Butane Torch but I still can't get them to budge.
Can I punch them trough the block and retrieve them with a magnet?
Should I just drill them out or just have the machine shop deal with it (already mangled one pin).
How did you guys get them out?
