IF you are positive all bolts are out, they should easily lift off. That has never happened to me in many engine teardowns. First, try just cranking the engine over and see if the compression will 'pop' them off. If that give's you no joy, I will tell you a method we used on BIG diesels (individual heads) Filled the cylinder with oil, with the pison at the bottom of the stroke, and bar turned the crank. The hydraulic pressure pushed them right off. Don't use the starter, as Rover con rods wont handle the hydrolock and can bend, especially if they come up hard midstroke.
