John's correct above here, that's exactly how we get them out also!

If we happen to have the block mounted on the Bridgeport for any other machining at that point we have the option of simply cutting the seats out with an end mill also.

Thanks, Gary in N.Y.

P.S. I'll also give you this, we generally find a +.005" will go right back in without any add'l machining, in other words once the original is removed it is simply a matter of pressing in the O/S replacement! This method has always worked for us here!
