Remove heads and oil pan, unbolt connecting rods, push rod and piston assembly out through top of block. remove the heads ,remove the oil pan, unbolt the rod caps, then push the pistons up ,and out of the bore , then remove the wrist pin from the piston & the rod will be off. very important info. below. before removing the rod caps number them with a # stamp to the corresponding cylinder. 1-8 & also # the rods. you want to be sure to put them back in the same bore, & also the same cap with it's mate rod, if you don't replace them. number everything to the corresponding cylinder,pistons also. there may be a wear ridge on the top of the cylinder walls. if there is you may have to remove it so you don't break the rings. you can rent, or purchase a ridge removing tool at an auto supply store.
