Any advice on getting that braket off the driver side head?

I need to get that bracket off to get the head out to change the gasket. I need the bracket off because i cant get the head out with the bracket attached because the AC lines are in the way.

Any help is appreciated

I believe you have to pull the power steering pulley off with a puller...You will then find some more bracket bolts behind there...

This guy has the same problem

Autozone rents the puller (thanks 01 Blue!) for $40, and you get the $40 back when you return it. Back the nut/washer thing off to the end of the large bolt. The large bolt pushes against the P/S hub, the two half round pieces go over the groove on the pulley AND the washer part of the nut washer thing. The sleeve holds the pieces together. Use 5/8 and 13/16 wrenches to tighten the bolt into the nut and you will draw the pulley to the front of the car. It is a long slow deal. Use the bearing and a small bolt to push it back on. Good luck.
