  Subject: Water inside head

  Water entered the cylinders and I am busy trying to take either the head off or the whole engine out.  
  Should I rather take the engine out or is it worth leaving it in and change the gaskets while the engine is in.  Or do I have to do both side even in this case.  The other side is OK still.
  It's not a corrosion case this time I think.  
  What do you guys say?

  Also the rear heatshield is in the way and the book is not talking about it.  It seems to be in the way of engine removal when I want to slide the engine backwards to get the shaft out of the tranny...
