Thanks Tom. That did it. Well that and soaking in PB overnight.

Stopped for the night. 13 hour day. 30 minutes if work but huge progress tonight.

Next up will be removing the brace that holds the hood latch. Then I'll jack up the engine a bit so I can wiggle it out and slide the new one in.

You can see the first lobe in the last two pics. Can't wait to see #6...
