Oh NO!! not another small block build

So the heads are first to come off. With an assistant I get the heads off and to the workbench.

They are really stuck on with the RTV sealant. Had to get a prybar in there

All the sealant is under the Felpro Permatorque gaskets....black sealant on one side and orange sealant on the other side …...kinda odd

Also there are a lot of dead bugs and debris in the cylinders ….hmmm...rebuilt??
