Hi List, Remember my post the other day about the guy trying to pass off a set of common-or-garden (Olde English phrase) 1275/1300 con rods as 1275 Spridget rods? Well my e-bay purchased 1275 Spridge

Not a home job if you want the parts to remain undamaged. My machine shop uses a shaped cradle to support the piston and drives out the gudgeon pins with a press. They have a special oven made speci

Hi Glen, List The pistons are standard and scrap metal as far as I'm concerned. I local garage has a hydraulic press that should do the job but they'll want anything up to #20 to do the job (many mor

Daniel If the pistons are toast, heat up the rod around the gudgeon (wrist) pin and drift out the pin. Do NOT (or try not) to heat the pin as it will expand along with the piston and you will get now
