Yep, that's one of the next problems Mike, how to get the blighter out. I know Graham has these special stud removal thingies, so I will have a play.

Looks like a really well cared for unit - the cam journals look like new and the cam will live to fight another day. I usually dunk the piston crowns in cellulose thinners over night or even longer and the carbon just rubs off with a cloth, same with the valves when you do those.
I had a stud like that one a few years back and waited till the cases were separated and empty, then heated the general area (not too concentrated in one spot) and put the whole stud length in the vice lengthwise and screwed the case off the stud - there were 3 like that and all came away without damage (studs were knackered of course!)

And.....the workshop now looks like a bomb has hit it and I have been told in no uncertain terms to clear it up.

Having seen his workshop I bet he has.
