I wonder if the pistons will even fit in the bore? If it ever runs I bet it wont last long.

I've never had to do liners but I wonder if putting them in the freezer for a while would have made things easier.

... and the block in an oven set at WARM.

Or you could just smack it with a sledge hammer and a plank.
Make sure you get that liner in there all crooked before you commence to wail on it.
It's seeing things like this that makes me dread buying anything used.

WOW!! So obvious it was not lined up.
Yup, chilling the liners in a freezer & heating the block with a couple heat lamps would allow them to fall in.
I agree with Baby Grand! If someone tells you they rebuilt it, or it looks like it was repaired, BEWARE.

Never hammer on liner pacs! Are the pacs oversize?

Watching the video made me cringe, with every blow of the hammer I just knew that cylinder was being bent to heII.

Probably because I'm afraid it will bring back memories of things I've witnessed or done. :)
