Mike good luck in trying to unstick your sc. I just wanted to tell you about a recently freed up engine that we did . The head was off too. It was a newer model vac g148 head. Know this is a little different than most of the posts you read, but I had heard from a older man with a white beard down to his chest. He always unstuck his engines by soaking them with coca cola the real stuff. It has muratic acid in it. Poured it in and after all the fizzy was gone I started noticing little chunks of rust were floating to the top. So we soaked it for couple of days with coke. It works on car batteries why not on this? Then we soaked with transmission fliud for another day. Then we did what you did by burning the transmission fluid out of the sleeves. Didn't what to put pressure on the hand crank and twisting into a snake. Then after that we put a 15" adjustable jaw wrench on the crankshaft pulley nut and a motor crane and placed a bolt through the back of the wrench so the hook wouldn't slide off. Started jacking the wrench up and letting the weight of the tractor and gravity do all of the work. Started tractor lifting the tractor and took a 1/2" disk the size of the piston and took a three pound hammer and hit each piston 5 or 6 times. After doing that we noticed that front tires were no longer an inch in the air. So I started lifting the wrench again and noticed that the pistons were starting to move slowly but were moving so I re-adjusted the lift and wrench about three times and had just about gone full circle with the pistons. Thought since it worked for us it might work for someone else . Good luck JimY
