if you don't need to use the pins again you could edm them out. you'd have to take them to a shop of course and it would cost you money, but they would come out without putting any kind of stress what so ever on your piston or connecting rod. the pin would be garbage however.

a machinist will heat them to get them out, but this usually distorts the piston (doesn't damage the rod)
I recently had to have my dad bring 2 of my pistons to his machinist because whoever had them before me had them pressed on backwards... They were srp forged so i had to save them, the machinist used heat to remove the pin but he had to re-machine the wrist pin hole in the pistons because it got distorted.
