Nick, since you'll have to do some machining anyhow for snap ring(s) why not open up the bore but leave a step on one side so you can use only one snap ring to hold it all together. No way would I trust a press-fit, especially a PTFE/plastic race into aluminum, and I think it would easily squeeze out without a positive retainer of some sort. The split race is going to make keeping it together challenging, imo. I think the Spiro-loks are made for lower side loads than the tapered snap rings.
