Pete, I, personally, would not go for a shrink fit, too much chance of it seizing during assembly (pressing) a good "fit for fit" sizing and a taper pin is all you need.
If you experience problems with your "press/shrink fit" you may scrap both pieces.
As you mentioned the maximum torque applied during use will be what you can apply with your wrist.
Just my opinion, for what it's worth.
