How to remove and install press fit ls style Pistons.

How do you center pin to piston

[@johnmeshawn4402]

I'm trying it now, just finished one and waiting for the next one to heat up. Next round I'm gonna try putting 2 in to heat up.

What do you do to center the rod on to the wrist pin? After you get the rod into place on the piston the gap on both sides of the rod have to be the same.

Dry ice works best .good video

[@soyeldiego4878]

Thanks man! Will be trying this set up...

[@shortattentionspangarage1312]

Cuss words, Harbor Freight shop press, toaster oven to heat stuff, cans of Miller Lite in the shop... My kind of mechanic.

Brilliant!!! Saved me from buying a torch!

Stop freezing the pins and the rod won't cool as fast. If your room is 70° F and you put your pins in the freezer at 30° F, you only shrink that pin by 0.000252" or 2.5um. Which is the size of a single smoke particle. A particle of pollen is 20um. So you can see the pin does not shrink much. Not enough to make it worth reducing the time you have for installation, that's for sure. Thanks for sharing though man.

Lol , good video !

[@glockman8091]

The wrist pin does not need to be put in the freezer it shortens the time frame….machine shops don’t have refrigerators sitting beside the connecting rod heater …just no reason for that. Only the rod needs to be heated. The only thing that needs to be cold is the Miller Light or in my case the Busch Light . Keep up the good work just keep the pins outa the freezer.

Man I'll be afraid I would bust the pistion

[@timwhite7798]

Living life in fear is no way to live.

[@BRENDAJASON1]

Right. But if ya bust a piston and on a budget it can be scary lol

[@stephenjray1988]

Have you had any piston failure with reusing pistons? after you have pressed them off and back on?

[@beaupatterson1527]

My instructor at tech college broke my brand new piston and didn’t give a single fuck about it :( not even a my bad man

[@beaupatterson1527]

@mike not a whole lot I could say or do just sol. Made me loose interest In the build tbh. At least for now
