OK, so I need a little help. For all the cars I have pulled apart, I am pretty much a maverick and just start pulling things off without reguard for order or proper form. I am trying to change that and pretty much hit a brick wall right off the bat. I can not get the flywheel bolts (17mm) to budge. I have not hit them with the impact wrench but have hit them with penetrating oil. Any good tips. I know these get torqued down to 120lbs or something but now how do I get them off. I want to get the flywheel off so that I can mount it on my engine stand with the steel 'ring' which brings up the second question. If you ae facing the trans end of the engine, which side does the ring go on so that you cansplit the case and get to all the good stuff in side. I know this is long but your help is appreciated. Here is a pic.
