Done it twice. First time, slicker n snot, second was a PIA. I left the dowels on the crankshaft. Soak to 250 F, convection oven helps. I don't think 350 F would hurt. Nothing metalurgically interesting happens until I think 750 F. Line it up visually, a mirror helps, slide it on. You might have 1/2 a second to index it and slide it on. If you get it right, it feels well, like two mating parts fitting up and slides back a fair ways w/ light force. If you're a bit off, it shrinks on and you'll probably need the puller to get it off, reheat and try again. Just plug in a toaster oven in your garage.
