A good quality grease gun and good quality biceps can generate 10,000 PSI. Used to hydro test polystyrene extrusion piping in this manner. Possible damage to the head could result. Dad and strong brothers were always able to bring a piston with a sledge and wood blocking.

There are some recent posts (2~3 weeks ago) on the same topic of sleeve pulling on a 400 engine. This was my brother asking questions about sleeve pulling. Thanks to the helpful chaps that frequent this board, my brother is a happy camper. Just wait 'til he gets the bill from the shop checking out his block and head!
