Default Any tips for removing bellhousing alignment dowels?
My lakewood is off by .021". I need to remove the original block alignment dowels to put their longer ones in. Any tips on how to do that? They are HARD, I can't drill them. Should I heat the block or the dowel or both? Or freeze them? Do you think one of those slide hammer dowel removal tools would work? I have a feeling this isn't going to be fun...

Thanks, Chuck
