      Been a couple years since I worked on a 51………..

      Make sure the gap is equal all the way around and not binding on the pins.  Put the nuts back on the ends of the crankshaft and tap on them until it comes apart?

      If it won’t come apart tap it back together to line it up and try again.

      When you put the new bearings in the hot case, use something to hold them down for a minute or they might squeeze back out a little.
