I just removed a set of stuck valves from a 327. My first step was to soak the valves and guides with PT Blaster. After they set for 8 hours of so, I tapped the head of the valves with a ball peen hammer (gently). I then uses small wedges between the valve stem and the lifter. All stuck intake valves came out fine. Just got them all cleaned, surfaced, and reinstalled today.
