I just picked up a COMP cams bronze distributor gear to use with my roller cam. Problem is, I can't figure out how to swap it for the iron gear. The retaining pin seems very stuck, and it looks like the gear itself may be an interference fit on the shaft. Do I need a press to get the pin out? Heat the shaft to remove the gear? Should I have ponied up for the MP gear that has the shaft with it?

I noticed the Mopar Performance gear says 'not for street use', but the COMP gear doesn't. Assuming they're made from the same bronze material, I doubt there's any difference in their lifespan?
