Whew! Removed 2 of the three stuck pistons in the 261 block.
The 5 lb. persuasion hammer and 4x4 did the trick and my back's OK.
The last piston wasn't so cooperative. The piston top is bad... it's future doesn't look too promising, but I'll be sure to get it's connecting rod out safely.
I'll pick up where I left off today, weather permitting.
