Well, I feel like I should share this because I feel a bit accomplished since I've really never touched a motor before.

An update:

I took the oil pan off disconnected the two pistons that were stuck and was able to move the crank shaft a bit. After a few rocks back a forth I too a piece of wood and smacked the two stuck pistons down and Voilà! They moved down! so then I took a prybar and wedged it into the teeth of the flywheel. With a little patience I was able to move all the pistons and the flywheel to remove all the bolts!

The flywheel didn't drop though,or yet, and I ran out of time so that is where I'm at. Thank you all for your help!
