Pilot bearing removal 51-54 8cyl

Posted by Tobs On 2010/11/28 8:31:39

Since the 288 I'm putting in my clipper came from an ultramatic transmission, I need to put a pilot bearing in the crank-end.
The crank from my old 327 still has the pilot bearing in there, and I want to remove that in one piece so I can take it to a bearing shop and find a replacement here in Munich. Is there a good or preferred method for removing this? Is it even pressed in with much interference fit?

-still sandblasting, marine clean, metal ready, and painting parts piece by piece as the seasons change....
