Speedi Sleeve Removal

[Stevec471]

I need to remove a previously installed Speedi Sleeve. The manufacturer says heat or cold chisel. I tried heat, but there's really not much thickness available to pry against, so no luck there. I'm a little reluctant to take a cold chisel to the crank shaft - any suggestions?

to remove the sleeves I carefully use a small side grinder and thin it some.
then I use a very sharp screwdriver and split it.
