More pilot bushing tips that you probably already know but my half-baked advice is cheap.

For removal, filling the crank cavity behind the bushing with a grease gun and then finding a socket that fits pretty snuggly to the hole, putting a short extension on it and tapping it into the hole with a hammer will pop the bushing out by hydraulic pressure.

Putting the new bushing in the deep freeze overnight and they quickly pulling it out and driving it in will ease the interference fit installation.

Good luck.
