What is the best way to go about getting the cylinders off a engine 
that is seized from rust?

I bought a whole pile of engine bits a couple of weeks ago, and one of 
the engines had the intake ports filled with water (and was seized). I 
dried that out, but I haven't had a chance to pull it apart yet. Should 
I fill the ports with oil or something and let it soak before I take 
the heads off?

What I want to do is get a 1500 engine going to put in my '65 
Squareback so I can take my time rebuilding the original engine.
