I would be willing to bet that you do not have a blown head gasket (I run a shop, and in all the years we have worked on the M96/97 engines, we have never seen a blown head gasket, but we have seen many cracked cylinder heads).

To answer your question, yes, you can remove the head, but it is a bastard job. It is much simpler, and quicker, to drop the engine out of the car.

Bxstr 2002 - suggest you search for "Intermix" and check for coolant in engine oil.
