Default Suggestion on getting a crankshaft reluctor wheel changed?

I am in Central Indiana and need a suggestion on getting a 24 tooth reluctor wheel swapped for a 58 tooth reluctor.. I have the crank out and cleaned and coated in fogging oil.. Going to order the reluctor from GM parts direct..
Just wanted to know if anyone had any suggestions.. I have a good press but the orientation is CRITICAL so i wanted to know what everyone else has done.. Building up a 5.7 LS1 to swap into my DD GMC Sierra..

The tool is made by Goodson it runs about $150.00. The wheel is heated on and off. Dealer don't do this anyway
