Why not just remove the oil pan and undo the conrod bolts and remove the
cylinder with the pistons?

Hey Andy, the Dreamcycle had sat outside for 12 years with left valve
cover off and therefore had about a gallon of water in motor and a really
stuck left piston also. About a can of Blaster over several days, and
probably an hour of beating on piston with hammer/wood block (and sometimes
without the wood block) finally got the bugger loose....You don't care about
the piston do you? Brett in Indy
