Press fit wrist pins
 

Here in a couple of days im gonna start my engine build up and the first thing i'll do will be to put some forged aluminum pistons in. I used to help overhaul engines when i lived with my parents on the farm, but that was several years ago. I've always dealt with floating wrist pins, never press fit. I was wandering if that is something i will easily be able to do by myself.

Press fit pins need to be pressed in w/ a press so don't fool around, have a shop put the pins in. Personally, majority of aftermarket pistons are made for full-floating pins so I would either get the stock rods machined for that or just get aftermarket rods.

you can clean it up, scrape all the gasket gunk off, and stack every part neatly. That'll save your engine builder some time.
