Before you get too excited, try putting the crankset in your freezer for an hour or so and then install it.
This will shrink the OD by enough to simplify insertion, considerably less force will be needed.
It worked for me with my 30mm FSA cranks. Saw this hint on a boutique BB site where it was part of the
install instructions for their crank/BB.

Of course later removal will require some use of a hammer and large dowels, but that is the way some
crank/BB are made.
