Hey guys great ideas. The more I think about it the more paranoid I am about using a slide hammer with the aluminum block. I like Rick's idea above as I have already dialed in the bell housing (~0.003") by carefully opening the holes in the housing in the direction needed.

I will heating it again tonight (after letting the penetrant sit too), but I think it is time for plan B. Grinding a flat spot on one side also might work as the vice grips can't grip the hard pins (don't even mark them up).

Keep up the good ideas, I will let you know how it works out.
