I've torn down several V-8 engines that were stuck due to rust/corrosion in the cylinders. I turned the block upside down and drove the pistons out the top of the bore with a steel driver rod and many licks from a two pound hammer.
After I got several of the rods/pistons out, I could rotate the crank out of the block.
I need a few small parts from a CH Kohler if you're parting the rest out.
