I didn't do much experimentation with the pneumatic tool. I have issues with how loud the compressor is and trying to keep the neighbors happy. But it truthfully didn't feel like it had enough oomph.

One other thing you might do is remove the studs before you do this, that would make it easier and you wouldn't have to stack the blocks so high so that they protect the studs from being hit by the hammer.


Makes sense, the pneumatic driver might keep them going once they are broke free, but probably takes a few heavy hits to get them broke free to start with.

I have an idea for a way to protect the block and hold the driver at the same time. I'll post a pic sometime.

Can't wait to get these guides replaced! Then I can get my engine put back together.

Thanks again.
