Alright guys, I need some help from those who have torn the MSP motors apart.

My machinest called me today and said that he does'nt want to try to take the piston coolers out without knowing exactly how to do it.

I assume they just unscrew just like any other bolt, but I want to make 100 percent sure.
 
They are pressed in, not threaded. You have to pry or drill them out. If you drill them out you have to be careful not to enlarge the oil port.
