I did, took it to a shop that pressed them off and on while I waited. OLd shop where the average age of the employees is 50. Lots of experience.

That's the way. When I called aroud a few years ago, and the one guy said sure,the way he said I figured he hadn't done one of these before. LOL.
The guy at East Coast machine knew exactly what to do. Cost $100 but was well worth it.

Paid to have one done. Next time i did it myself. Was winter so i threw axle in snowbank, and set bearing and ring on a trouble lamp bulb (incandescent)
1/2 hour or so i brought axle in and dropped bearing and ring onto axle. A couple thumps with a heavy wall pipe and bearing was seated.

This guy is an old Chevy guy, but anyone with a old classic needing something special done goes to him.
Told him we were on a tight schedule trying to do the last day finish up.
He had them back to me in an hour and a half for $72.
He's a friend of a friend. We've talked a few times at car shows.
Always nice to have those contacts.

My farm implement shops had a old fry pan filled with motor oil that they would use to heat the bearings up in. That worked great.
 
The only thing left is a new starter. Buddy recommended a new 95 Dodge mini starter.
He put them on his 67 and 68 383 and got rid of the classic slow start BS.
I agree!!

I put one on my 66. It works great and spins that 273 over fast. I do mis the Wing ding ding ding noise though. So much for originality. LOL
