Hi everyone, just need a little refreshing!

Fitting pistons to the conrods, they are press in gudgeon pins arnt they. Any special things to do etc?

Also wondering if its worth making something to support the piston but allow gudgeon pin to be pressed through?

Any help appreciated cheers chris. Hope this is in the right place!!!!
 
Ok so plenty of heat on the gudgeon pin to remove and a little tapping? Then to fit, heat up conrod, slip on piston the drop gudgeon pin in.

I suppose it still needs a press to do it? Also does it need to be oxy acetaline bottles to head up as we have gas torches with propane etc
