Lanse- two things that this photo bears discussion on: 1. the use of force- remember, and engine is supposed to RUN. If it takes that much force, STOP- something is wrong. If you are beating on something, plan on replacing it- and most of the stuff connected to it 2. CLEAN EVERYTHING- I've seen pistons used as ash trays that look cleaner and better prepped than that one. When you assemble an engine, keep it clean- even old parts should shine like new. Clean the area you're working in- ya don't want any junk dropping into your new bottom end.This is mechanical surgery here- prep like it! Cleanliness doesn't cost anything- just your time.
