Default RC10GT engine problem with bearings

Guys,

I recently bought an RC10GT and tore down the engine to clean it. Well the front bearing just fell apart and the outside race is stuck inside it and the main bearing is stuck in the block as well. I have heated the engine up in the oven and struggling to get them out. Any suggestions??

It might be worth getting a new block, or another used engine that's in good shape. You will probably need to spend money on a special "inside" puller, and there's no guarantee that it will work.
