Be careful not to let the rod bolt scratch the crank , number the pistons so they can go back in the same holes ditto bearings . There will be no need to replace good bearings (except for STROKER) .............

Thanks Jim. CS has a good picture page on this as well. He wrapped his bolts with rags before pulling out the pistons to keep the walls safe. Yup, every thing is numbered and documented....im running out of numbers

rubber tubing of the right size will make a "condom" of sorts for the bolts .

Use a condom when installing and removing the piston
