I did all in one too, I grew up seeing a lot of aero engines and was always fascinated by how and why it was done! This sort of thing - they have special pliers, I got a tired wrist.

How much end float is there on the shaft?

I have a ducellier on mine, think it's 90° out.. doesn't matter until you put the plug leads on in the wrong order and get a good backfire 😁🤯🤔

Worth checking to see if you have a local motor/alternator specialist. I have, Mr Morgan has saved me a fortune.

If @sprie is asking if a freshly rebuilt engine is harder to turn over - no, any increased compression and not-yet-run-in bits would be compensated by all the oil you hopefully squirted everywhere!
