Engine to trans alignment dowels

[ACC]

I'm in the process of installing a Tidewater long block, the ones in the old block seem impossible to remove.

Do you just go get new ones or is there a trick to getting them out?

Thanks

I haven't taken them out myself. I imagine they are pressed in there. It may be easier to get new ones then try to extract them.

That's what I was thinking.

Well back to the dealership in the morning

Thanks Ryan
