compression in the radiator

by

 

I've been reading the messages posted in this forum and for the most part they are the same things over and over again. Well i have a problem that's not so typical, my car, a 1995 Acura Integra 4 cyl., has compression in the radiator. As soon as you crank the engine, the radiator gets a reverse pressure test from the engine. If you try to start it with the radiator cap off it erupts water out the neck until it's empty. I know it's probably a cracked head gasket next to a water jacket. What i need to know is, is there anyone out there that has had this problem and fixed it themselves? I need to know if there is an easier way to remove the head than what the manual says. It says to remove the intake and exhaust manifolds, besides the fuel rail and injectors plus a lot of other crap.Any help would be appreciated.
