I am putting a new balanced FW on the motor I've been building up. Trouble is I can't seem to get the pressure plate dowels out of the 2 old flywheels I have. Already tried brute force on a big pair of vice grips, and I've let them soak in WD-40 for the last week. I can't seem to find any replacements to order either. Anyone have a tip?

Remove the flywheel, dig the grease out of the holes on the backside, get the proper size pin punch and knock them out.
Heck I've done it with a nail that I've ground the point off flat. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif)
Easy peasy !

OMG....there's a proper way to dood it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/slap.gif)

Absolutely correct! Plenty of hard jobs, but not this one.
