Rocky,
I asked Les @ lt-racing what he would do. He spent time as a machinist at Boeing and also is a Honda Factory Trained Tech...
If the race on the crank does not come off easily - you will need a bearing splitter and a hydraulic press to do the job. If you don't have practice at using either of these items to perform this task - the suggestion is to take it to a machine shop that does and have them "deal with it" for you...
Heat (torch) should be used as a last resort if bearing splitter and press fail to do the job. "You don't want to heat up the crank like that if you don't have to..."
Jeff
