Ive managed to acquire a subaru bulletin about doing this can't find at mo
Off the top of my memory (after removing the ancillaries to gain access!!) It mentions undoing the engine mounts and jacking up the engine a certain distance then moving the engine to the left\right depending on head to be be removed, and lifing the heads out with the headbolts undone but still in place.
Ive never done this job myself but im sure i will be corrected if im wrong!!
